Description

The present invention relates to an ankle supporter for improving posture and walking in daily life and improving sports performance.

While humans tend to walk upright with their entire weight supported by both feet, they tend to spend unnatural postures and unreasonable postures from work, sports, or daily lifestyle, and as a result, many people sit on their legs from their waists. The current situation is troubled by various problems.

As countermeasures, many types of devices that are worn around the body, such as around the waist, knees and calves, or around the heel with elastic fabric, are available.

Many of these conventional supporters have a configuration in which a wide area of an elastic sheet surrounds a painful area in order to support a body with movement. Therefore, not only does the cost burden increase, but there are problems such as troublesome attachment / detachment and uncomfortable feeling for a long time.

In order to solve such problems, the present invention focuses not only on the heel part, which is the key to the human body structure for walking upright, but also guarding that part to fix and protect it, thereby The problem is to cope with various pain problems and sports by improving unnatural postures and movements such as knees and hips.

As shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, it consists of a three-dimensional band body 1 formed so as to cover the back of the sole, the back of the foot, and the upper back of the foot in a band shape when worn. By peeling the joint portion, in the case as shown in FIG. 2, a substantially Y-shaped two-dimensional shape having a slightly inclined one side and a bifurcated lower end is obtained as shown in FIG. It shall be provided in the upper tip part and lower end branch part of Y character. However, since the shape of the foot is line symmetrical on the left and right, the shape of the substantially Y-shaped band body 1 and the shape of the line symmetrical inclined to the opposite side (not shown) are added to form a set. .

As is apparent from the above, the surface of the band body 1 that extends below the Y-shape is crossed to the front of the heel of the sole, and is attached to the tip of the ankle from the upper branching portion on the opposite side. The surface fastener 2 is bonded and fixed in a face-to-face manner with the surface fastener 2 attached to the tip where the lower end of the Y-shape is bent upward. Needless to say, the surface fastener 2 is set in advance so that one surface is a male surface and the other surface is a female surface when mating. And the sticking position of the surface fastener 2 is finely adjusted so that this band body 1 may contact | adhere closely to the wrinkle applicable part.

FIGS. 4 and 5 show examples corresponding to the case shown in FIG. That is, when not attached, the joint portion of the surface fastener 2 is peeled off to form a two-dimensional band body 1 composed of a substantially C-shaped long belt portion and a straight-extending short belt portion. It shall be connected with the fixed or detachable planar fastener 2 so that it may become a pendulum shape in the appropriate part of this long belt part. FIG. 4 shows the case where the long band part and the short band part are separated, and FIG.

In addition, in the figure, as an appropriate portion to be connected in the elongated shape of the long band portion, a portion of about a quarter from one end of the full length is illustrated, but in this case, the surface is located at a portion of about a quarter from the other end. By attaching the zipper 2 in place, the surface zipper 2 attached to the tip of the short band that crosses the sole at that point is fixed to support the sole, and the long band surrounds the ankle Adhering and fixing are performed while finely adjusting with the planar fasteners 2 at both ends at the front instep. Considering that the front is easy to fine-tune and fix.

However, the basic concept of the present invention is not limited thereto. In other words, the elongated fixed portion may be one end portion or the central portion, and there may be a product form in which, for example, it is previously sewn or integrally formed to be a non-separable one.

Further, FIGS. 6 to 8 show other forms corresponding to the case shown in FIG. In other words, the two-dimensional band composed of a substantially U-shaped long strip portion and a straight stretched short strip portion, which are originally bent at an acute angle when the joint portion of the surface fastener 2 is peeled off when not attached. Although it is comprised from the body 1 (FIG. 6), if the both ends 1a of the substantially U-shaped long belt part are fixedly connected, it will become a three-dimensional ring body, and if it folds in the linear location, it will become a two-dimensional shape. Then, when the long meridian projecting ends of the long band part that has become a three-dimensional ring body are connected with the short band part, it is as shown in FIG. 7, and when this is turned upside down and folded up and down (the fold is the long band part) (Corresponding to a straight portion) as shown in FIG.

By doing so, the product form is extremely compact, and the feeling of use is not inferior to that of the form shown in FIG. That is, even if the both end portions 1a are fixedly connected in advance to form a three-dimensional form, if the two ends 1a are folded, they are two-dimensional if they are folded. In addition, since the band body 1 itself is made of a flexible material although having strength, even if both sides are linear in FIG. 7, if the left and right sides are spread out, a substantially circular tertiary as shown in FIG. Transform into an original ring body.

Next, as another form corresponding to FIG. 1, the band body 1 may be made of a resilient and elastic thin ribbon body such as rubber. In this case, the joint portion is fixed or planar fastener so that the mounting and non-mounting transition operations can be performed by expanding and contracting the band body while the joint portion is fixed.

In this case, the band body 1 is basically composed of two elements, ie, a long belt portion that surrounds the upper part of the ankle and a short belt portion that supports the rear portion of the sole. However, as shown in FIG. There is no need to be curved or bent, and a straight belt shape may be used.

The band body 1 made of the elastic stretchable thin band body has a non-conical cylindrical shape if the long band portion is a little wider and a straight band shape, and both ends 1a are fixedly connected and wound into a ring shape, Since it is thin and stretchable, it was actually found that there is almost no sense of incongruity in the rear part of the toe and the upper part of the heel. However, the material is preferably soft rubber or stocking fabric.

For fine adjustment according to the user's foot shape, if necessary, the tail portion 1c is further extended from both end portions 1a that are fixedly connected in a ring shape in the long band portion. The proper position can be determined by providing the sheet-like fastener 2 at the tip and then mating the sheet-like fastener 2 with the sheet-like fastener 2 provided in advance on the surface of the long belt portion main body. In addition, you may finely adjust similarly by the surface fastener provided in the both ends only in the long belt | band | zone part, without forming the tail part 1c.

Note that it goes without saying that even when such elastic stretchable strips are used, the long strip portion may have a curved two-dimensional shape.

By the way, when the short belt part is fixedly connected to the long belt part using such elastic stretch strips, the surface fastener 2 etc. does not overlap the heel next to the ankle when worn, There is a merit that does not overlap and does not get in the way.

According to the present invention, it is only necessary to attach to a small part of the foot, which is a small part of the foot, which helps to optimize the distortion of the whole body without a heavy burden or discomfort associated with wearing, and it also causes fatigue and deterioration It also has an effect that can contribute to the improvement of adverse effects of lifestyle habits.

In the two elastic long and short elastic strips as illustrated in FIG. 9, the long strip portion has a thickness of 0.6 mm, a width of 35 mm, and a total length of 340 mm, and the short strip portion has a thickness of 0.6 mm, a width of 25 mm, and a total length. 145 mm. A part for fixing and connecting one end of the long band part and a part of about 3/5 of the entire length in a ring shape is used as a stitch part with both ends 1a, and the surface fastener 2 is attached about 1/3 before that. . The remaining 2/5 of the long belt portion becomes a tail portion 1c extending outside the ring, and the planar fastener 2 is attached to the tip portion. Both end portions 1a of the short belt portion are stitched in the same manner as the both end portions 1a that make the long belt portion into a ring shape, and a separate stitch portion for connecting and fixing the short belt portion to the long belt portion (for convenience, this Are also provided at two positions along the edge at appropriate positions on both sides of the planar fastener 2.

As described above, the long band portion may be curved or bent as shown in FIGS. 4 and 6 as necessary. There may be a form of fine adjustment by selection of expansion / contraction or large / medium / small size. Thus, the best embodiment of the present invention is not necessarily limited to one.

Since the present invention has a good feeling of use, has many needs, and can be mass-produced, it can be used industrially.
