Description

  The present invention relates to a foot cover in which an independent cushion portion provided with a permanent magnet is in contact with acupoints of a wearer's foot, has an effect of recovery from fatigue, does not shift after wearing, and is comfortable for a long time. .

  The foot cover is a kind of short socks as shown in FIG. 4 of Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 2-3404, and may be referred to as a sock cover, an inner sock, a cover sock, or the like. For women and young people, wearing pumps and sneakers with bare feet has become a fashion, and in order to reduce discomfort caused by direct contact between the wearer's feet and the shoe sole when worn with bare feet, It has become common to wear. Wearing a foot cover usually covers the soles, toes, both sides, and buttocks, but most of the instep and the ankle are exposed so that when worn, a part of the foot cover from the pumps or sneakers However, it looks like they are wearing pumps or sneakers directly on their bare feet.

  The foot cover has a large cut at the upper opening of the mouth so that it cannot be seen from the outside when wearing shoes. There are few. Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 2-3404 relates to a normal sock in which a large number of hemispherical gel-like projections are formed at the bottom of the sock, and each projection includes magnet powder, ceramic resin, copper powder, and the like. If you wear this sock at all times, you can always give a massage-like stimulus to the sole of the foot, and by containing magnetic powder, it exerts the effect of exerting magnetic force on the human body to promote blood circulation. Yes.

  Japanese Utility Model Application No. 2-3404 explains that small protrusions containing magnet powder exert magnetic force on the human body from the sole and promotes blood circulation, but the small protrusions containing magnet powder are simply dispersed over the entire sole. However, the effect of promoting blood circulation hardly occurs. In order to solve the problem that there is almost no effect of increasing blood circulation with respect to socks, many inventions have been proposed in which a projection having a magnet piece is installed so as to abut on the acupuncture point of the sole. For example, Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 7-37178 discloses footwear and insoles, and Japanese Patent Laid-Open Nos. 11-350204 and 2008-279125 disclose socks.

Japanese Utility Model Publication 2-3404 Specification Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 7-37178 Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 11-350204 JP 2008-279125 A

  In Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 7-37178, a protruding acupressure member is arranged so as to correspond to the acupuncture points of the soles with respect to footwear and insoles, but the wearer's feet completely match the inside of the footwear such as shoes and sandals. Rather, the foot usually has some room inside. Therefore, in Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 7-37178, it is actually the case that the wearer's foot slightly moves inside the footwear during walking, and the acupressure member provided on the footwear or insole is always in contact with the acupuncture point of the sole accurately. It is difficult. Further, the acupressure member is made of silicon rubber or the like, and when the acupressure member is bonded to the insole, the two materials are different, so that they are easily peeled off from the insole during use.

  In JP-A-11-350204 and JP-A-2008-279125, a resin or rubber projection is provided on the inner surface of the sock. However, since a sock made of knitted fabric is generally highly stretchable, the projection provided on the sock It is easy to slip when wearing or walking, and it is difficult to always contact the acupuncture point of the sole accurately. Providing protrusions made of resin or rubber in socks made of knitted fabric makes the wearer feel uncomfortable because the feel and elasticity of the materials are different, and as above, the protrusions are easily peeled off from the socks due to the different materials . In addition, when attaching the resin or rubber protrusions to the knitted socks, it is necessary to accurately position and securely bond the plurality of protrusions, which adds extra work and increases costs.

  The present invention has been proposed in order to improve the above-mentioned problems related to conventional socks and insoles provided with acupressure protrusions, and the independent cushion part is not peeled off from the sole material. An object of the present invention is to provide a foot cover that is less likely to be displaced after the independent cushion portion comes into contact with the acupoint of the foot. Another object of the present invention is to provide a foot cover that is less likely to feel uncomfortable even when an independent cushion portion is formed, and that is comfortable to wear. Another object of the present invention is to provide a foot cover that is easy to install the independent cushion part on the sole material and requires little extra work.

  The foot cover according to the present invention uses a sole material in which one or two thermal adhesive films are sandwiched between an inner knitted fabric and an outer knitted fabric, and at least one independent cushion portion in the sole material. A permanent magnet is provided. In this foot cover, these independent cushion portions are interposed between the inner knitted fabric and the outer knitted fabric, and then integrated by heating and pressing at a high temperature, so that each independent cushion portion is under the inner knitted fabric. When the cover is worn, the cushion portion provided with the permanent magnet comes into contact with the acupoint of the wearer's foot.

   In the foot cover according to the present invention, one or two thermal adhesive films are sandwiched between an inner knitted fabric and an outer knitted fabric, and an independent cushion portion having a permanent magnet is interposed between the inner knitted fabric and the outer knitted fabric. In addition to the sole material that is laminated and integrated by heating and pressurizing at a high temperature, a band-shaped peripheral knitted fabric that covers the toe portion, both side portions, and the heel periphery is used. In this foot cover, by sewing the belt-shaped peripheral knitted fabric into a cylindrical shape and then sewing it around the entire circumference of the sole, when the cover is worn, the cushion portion provided with a permanent magnet is attached to the wearer's foot. Abut on the acupuncture point.

  In the foot cover according to the present invention, the independent cushion portion provided with the permanent magnet is made of rubber or plastic material on the middle and high sides, and the cushion portion uses a rubber magnet material mixed with magnetic powder in rubber or plastic, or When a disc-shaped magnet piece is stored in rubber or plastic material, or a medium-high side magnet piece is affixed to the surface of an elastic material and a cover is worn, the acupuncture point `` spring '' of the wearer's foot Touch. Moreover, it is preferable that all of the three independent cushion portions are made of flexible rubber or plastic, and at least the circular independent cushion portion located in the middle includes a permanent magnet. Further, in the three independent cushion portions, the front independent cushion portion is located at the base of the toe, and the rear independent cushion portion is located at the heel portion, and the relatively large front and rear independent cushion portions are intermediate. It is higher and softer than the cushion part.

  In the foot cover according to the present invention, even if the sole material is flexible, it does not stretch like a knitted fabric of socks, so if the independent cushion part comes into contact with the acupoint of the wearer's foot, it will not slip after wearing, By constantly stimulating the acupuncture points, in the case of the acupuncture point "spring", fatigue is recovered and back pain is relieved. The foot cover according to the present invention uses a sole material laminated with a thermal adhesive film sandwiched between an inner knitted fabric and an outer knitted fabric, and each individual cushion portion is sandwiched between the inner knitted fabric and the outer knitted fabric. The independent cushion part does not detach from the sole material.

  In the foot cover according to the present invention, the independent cushion portion is located below the inner knitted fabric, and only the inner knitted fabric is always in contact with the wearer's foot. There are few uncomfortable feelings at times, and the comfort of the foot cover is always good. In the foot cover of the present invention, the individual independent cushion portions need only be disposed between the inner knitted fabric and the outer knitted fabric of the sole material, and little extra work such as specific bonding work is required.

It is sectional drawing of the sole material cut | disconnected along the AA line of FIG. It is a development side view showing arrangement of each material before manufacturing a sole material of Drawing 2. It is a fragmentary sectional view of the sole material which shows another independent cushion part provided with the permanent magnet. It is a fragmentary sectional view showing another example of another independent cushion part provided with a permanent magnet.

  The foot cover 1 according to the present invention is usually composed of a sole material 2 and a belt-shaped peripheral knitted fabric 3, and the peripheral knitted fabric covers the toe portion 5, the side portions 6 and 6, and the heel peripheral portion 7. The belt-shaped peripheral knitted fabric 3 may be sewn in a cylindrical shape with the sewing line 8, and then the lower periphery of the peripheral knitted fabric 3 may be sewn in an annular shape with the sewing line 10 around the sole 2. This foot cover is generally in the form of a product as shown in FIG. 1, but by making the surrounding knitted fabric into a long cylindrical shape, it can be shaped like a normal sock or by omitting the surrounding knitted fabric. It is also possible to use for the same use as a shoe insole.

  When the wearer puts on the foot 12, the foot cover 1 has a three-dimensional shape as shown in FIG. 1, and the peripheral knitted fabric 3 is folded and substantially flat when not worn. As shown in FIG. 1, the foot cover 1 when worn covers the sole, toe, both sides and the heel of the wearer's foot 12, and most of the instep and the ankle are exposed. The foot cover 1 has a wide opening 16 formed by the upper peripheral edge 14 of the surrounding knitted fabric 3 so as not to be exposed from shoes such as pumps and sneakers when worn.

  The sole material 2 used in the foot cover 1 has a foot-shaped plane as shown in FIG. 2, and, as illustrated in FIG. 4, one or two pieces of thermal bonding are performed between the inner knitted fabric 18 and the outer knitted fabric 20. The whole is laminated and integrated by heating and pressurizing at a high temperature with the film 22 interposed therebetween, and cut into an appropriate foot shape before or after lamination. The inner knitted fabric 18 and the outer knitted fabric 20 may be a mixed knitted fabric of nylon and polyurethane, or may be further improved by adding cotton, and knitted fabrics of other materials may be used. . The inner knitted fabric 18 in contact with the wearer's skin is preferably cotton or cotton blended knitted fabric with good touch. Moreover, although the heat bonding film 22 is generally made of polyurethane, other plastic films having somewhat low stretchability can also be used.

  As shown in FIG. 4, regarding the manufacture of the sole material 2, when two thermal adhesive films 22 are used, the independent cushion portions 24 to 28 can be easily fixed, and the thermal adhesive film 22 on the outer knitted fabric 20 is attached in advance. The whole may be heated and pressed at a high temperature after softening and temporarily fixing the independent cushion portions 24 to 28 on the film. If the number of the heat bonding films 22 is one, even if the space between the inner knitted fabric 18 and the surfaces of the independent cushion portions 24 to 28 is not bonded, or an adhesive is applied or stuck to the surface of the cushion portions. May be.

  In the sole 2, independent cushion portions 24 to 28 are disposed between the inner knitted fabric 18 and the outer knitted fabric 20, and at least one of the independent cushion portions 24 includes a permanent magnet. By laminating and integrating the entire fabric including the knitted fabrics 18 and 20, the individual independent cushion portions 24 to 28 are fixed on the sole material 2, and each independent cushion portion is positioned below the inner knitted fabric 18. . At this time, the number of independent cushion portions provided with permanent magnets may be two or more, and the individual independent cushion portions may be arranged at different positions in the sole 2.

  The independent cushion portion 24 provided with a permanent magnet is usually a medium-high side so as not to impair the feeling of contact with the sole, and the planar shape is a curved peripheral surface such as a circle, an ellipse, a chamfered rectangle, etc. as shown in FIG. Have. The independent cushion portion 24 is made of the same or different flexible rubber or soft plastic as the other independent cushion portions 26 and 28, and is smaller and lower than both cushion portions in order to give a high acupressure effect. Set the hardness higher than both cushion parts. Even if the independent cushion portion 24 is a rubber magnet material 30 in which magnetic powder is mixed with rubber or plastic as shown in FIG. 3, the disk-like magnet piece 32 is bottomed downward with the elastic material 34 as shown in FIG. Even if it is housed in the hole 36, the middle and high side magnet pieces 38 may be attached to the surface of the elastic member 40 as shown in FIG. 6.

  2 and 3, the independent cushion portion 24 provided with a permanent magnet is disposed so as to abut the acupoint of the wearer's foot when the cover is worn, but is not a “spring” in FIG. 2. You may arrange | position in the acupuncture point position. In general, there are about 60 to 70 acupuncture points (reflective zones) on the soles of humans, and when the body changes, the reflective zones corresponding to the soles become stiff, rustled, and the skin color changes. It becomes the state of. Acupuncture points “spring springs” are all-purpose acupuncture points that relieve fatigue and increase physical strength and energy to rejuvenate the entire body. The independent cushion portion 24 in FIG. 2 is disposed at a recessed portion by bending a toe in the middle of the arch slightly above the arch so as to contact the acupoint “spring”.

  On the other hand, if an independent cushion part provided with a permanent magnet is installed at the position of the acupuncture point “sleeplessness”, it has the effect of calming the nerves, eliminating insomnia and relaxing the mood. The position of the acupuncture point “insomnia” is at the intersection of the line connecting the second finger and the third finger toward the heel and the line connecting the inner and outer heels, and the position is the rear independent cushion portion 28. Included in When this independent cushion part is installed at the position of the base of the finger on the sole, there is an acupuncture point that works on the neck and shoulder, and there is also an effect of strengthening the internal organs, and the position is included in the front independent cushion part 26 . In addition, installing an independent cushion with a permanent magnet at the position of the acupuncture point “foot center” of the arch improves the function of the kidneys, removes swelling of the legs, adjusts the digestive organs including the gastrointestinal tract, and causes gastrointestinal upset It is also effective for accompanying heartburn.

  The normal independent cushion portions 26 and 28 are softer than the independent cushion portion 24 having a permanent magnet, and have a curved peripheral surface such as an ellipse, a circle, or a chamfered rectangle as shown in FIG. Then, the planar shape is larger than that of the independent cushion portion 24. The side surfaces of both independent cushion portions 26 and 28 have a medium and high side surface so as not to impair the feeling of touch with the sole, as with the independent cushion portion 24 (see FIGS. 3 and 4). In FIG. 2, the largest front independent cushion part 26 is located in front of each base part of the fifth finger and the thumb ball part and the little finger ball part from the thumb, and the rear independent cushion part 28 is substantially the entire area of the buttocks. To cover. The normal independent cushion parts 26 and 28 have the effect of relaxing the stimulus from the independent cushion part 24 and buffering the impact on the foot during walking.

  In the foot cover 1, the belt-like peripheral knitted fabric 3 is usually knitted with a thin knitted fabric having elasticity, and even if it is a nylon knitted fabric, other knitted fabrics such as nylon / polyurethane mixed fabric or cotton are used. A knitted fabric with added material may be used. A narrow tape 42 of the same knitted fabric is affixed to the peripheral knitted fabric 3 along the upper peripheral edge 14 of the foot 16. Further, in the heel peripheral portion 7, a semi-elliptical piece 44 of the same knitted fabric is attached to the inside of the cover in contact with the periphery of the wear mouth 16, and a horizontally long resin portion 46 is applied on the semi-elliptical piece. The resin part 46 can enhance the adhesion with the buttocks of the wearer's foot 12 and prevent the foot cover 1 from being displaced from the foot 12.

  In the case of the acupuncture point “spring spring”, the foot cover 1 is provided with a middle and high side independent cushion part 24 having permanent magnets, so that the independent cushion part 24 always stimulates the acupoint of the foot 12 when worn. Recover fatigue and relieve back pain, increase physical strength and energy, and rejuvenate the whole body. In the foot cover 1, the individual cushion portions 26 to 28 are sandwiched between the inner knitted fabric 18 and the outer knitted fabric 24, so that the individual cushion portions do not detach from the sole material 2. In the foot cover 1, even if the sole material is flexible, it does not stretch like a knitted fabric of socks, so that when the independent cushion part comes into contact with the meridian of the wearer's foot, it does not shift after wearing.

  Next, although this invention is demonstrated based on an Example, this invention is not limited by an Example. In order to manufacture the sole material 2 of the foot cover 1, as shown in FIG. 4, an inner knitted fabric 18 of cotton knitted fabric, an outer knitted fabric 20 of nylon knitted fabric, independent cushion portions 24-28 and two heat-bonded polyurethanes Films 22 and 22 are used. The independent cushion parts 24 to 28 are made of the same or different flexible rubber or soft plastic.

  The intermediate independent cushion portion 24 is made of a rubber magnet material 30 that is magnetized by mixing magnetic ferrite powder into rubber or plastic, and has a strong magnetic force as an anisotropic magnet. 2 and 3, the independent cushion portion 24 is recessed by bending the toe at the center slightly above the arch so as to abut the acupoint “spring” of the wearer's foot when the cover is worn. Place it at the place. That is, the position of the independent cushion portion 24 is a portion of 1/3 of the entire length of the sole 2 and is disposed at the center in the lateral direction.

  The intermediate independent cushion portion 24 has a circular plane with a diameter of 15 mm, and is a middle-high side surface reaching a height of 5 mm. The front independent cushion portion 26 has an elliptical plane having a width of 58 mm and a length of 40 mm, and is a medium-high side surface reaching a height of 10 mm. The rear independent cushion portion 28 has a circular plane with a diameter of 38 mm, and is a medium-high side surface that reaches a height of 8 mm. The intermediate independent cushion portion 24 is set to have a higher hardness than both the cushion portions 26 and 28 in order to provide a high acupressure effect.

  In order to manufacture the sole 2, the outer knitted fabric 20 and the lower polyurethane film 22 are preliminarily overlapped and heat-softened, and the individual cushion portions 24 to 28 are pressed onto the film and temporarily fixed. Next, after superposing the upper polyurethane film 22 and the inner knitted fabric 18, the whole is laminated and integrated by heating and pressing at a high temperature with a press. When the inner knitted fabric 18, the outer knitted fabric 20 and the heat-bonding polyurethane films 22 and 22 are long and continuously processed, the press may be simultaneously punched into the foot plane.

  In the sole 2, independent cushion portions 24 to 28 are disposed between the inner knitted fabric 18 and the outer knitted fabric 20, and at least one of the independent cushion portions 24 includes a permanent magnet. By laminating and integrating the entire fabric including the knitted fabrics 18 and 20, the individual independent cushion portions 24 to 28 are fixed in the sole material 2, and each independent cushion portion is positioned below the inner knitted fabric 18. . At this time, the number of independent cushion portions provided with permanent magnets may be two or more, and the independent cushion portions are arranged at different positions in the sole 2.

  When the foot cover 1 is manufactured, a sole material 2 and a belt-shaped peripheral knitted fabric 3 are used. On the peripheral knitted fabric 3 of the nylon knitted fabric, a narrow tape 42 of the same knitted fabric is affixed to the inside along the upper peripheral edge 14 of the mouth 16. Further, in the heel peripheral portion 7, a semi-elliptical piece 44 of the same knitted fabric is attached to the inside of the cover in contact with the periphery of the wear mouth 16, and a horizontally long resin portion 46 is applied on the semi-elliptical piece. The belt-shaped peripheral knitted fabric 3 is sewn into a cylindrical shape with a sewing line 8, and then the lower periphery thereof is sewn in a ring shape around the sole material 2 with a sewing line 10.

  The foot cover 1 after completion of sewing has a middle and high side independent cushion part 24 with permanent magnets, and the independent cushion part 24 always stimulates the acupoint “spring” of the foot 12 when worn, thereby recovering fatigue. And relieve back pain, improve physical strength and energy, and rejuvenate the whole body. In the foot cover 1, the individual cushion portions 26 to 28 are sandwiched between the inner knitted fabric 18 and the outer knitted fabric 24, so that the individual cushion portions do not detach from the sole material 2. In the foot cover 1, even if the sole material 2 is flexible, it does not stretch like a knitted fabric of socks, and therefore, when the independent cushion part comes into contact with the meridian of the wearer's foot, it does not slip after wearing.

  The sole material (not shown) of the second embodiment is manufactured in the same manner as the sole material 2 of the foot cover 1, but is not provided with the usual independent cushion portions 26 and 28, and is provided with three independent cushions having permanent magnets. Place only the part. The independent cushion portion is made of the same or different elastic material 34 of soft rubber or soft plastic, and a bottomed hole 36 is formed in the elastic material as shown in FIG. 5, and a circular hole is formed in the bottomed hole. The plate-like magnet piece 32 is accommodated and fixed.

  The three independent cushion portions 24 have a circular plane with a diameter of 15 mm, and are medium-high side surfaces reaching a height of 2 to 5 mm. These independent cushion portions are set to have a higher hardness than the normal cushion portions 26 and 28 in order to provide a high acupressure effect.

  For the three independent cushion parts 24, the first one is placed in a recessed part with the toe bent slightly in the middle above the arch so that it abuts the foot acupuncture point "spring". Stimulate the fountain to relieve fatigue, improve physical strength and energy and rejuvenate the whole body. The second piece is placed at a position where the line connecting the second and third fingers toward the heel and the line connecting the inner and outer heels intersect with the acupuncture point “sleeplessness” The acupuncture point “sleeplessness” is stimulated to calm down the nerves and eliminate insomnia and relax the mood. The third piece is placed at the center of the arch so that it touches the acupuncture point “foot heart”, stimulates the acupuncture point “foot heart” to improve the function of the kidneys and removes swelling of the foot. Prepares the digestive organs to prevent heartburn associated with gastrointestinal upset.
