Description

The present invention relates to clothing for lower limbs such as socks, knee socks, calf supports, knee supports, etc. that are highly productively molded and knitted in accordance with the shape, movement, and function of human feet and legs, and methods for manufacturing the same.

The shape of human feet and legs is three-dimensional and asymmetrical. The foot has parts that bend, such as the ball joint of the big toe and the ankle joint, and parts that do not. In addition, there is a part of the sole that touches the ground to support the body, and there is also a part of the arch that forms an arch so that the part that contacts the ground works effectively without touching the ground, even though it is the sole of the foot. The legs have swollen parts such as the ankles, the front edge of the tibia, and the calves.

On the other hand, socks are generally knitted into a cylindrical shape by forward knitting, and the toe and heel parts are knitted into a trapezoidal bag shape by forward knitting, which follows the shape of the foot. However, it is symmetrical, has no irregularities, and is flat.

For sports, it is desirable to have socks that follow the foot without any waste, fit the foot well, and do not put pressure on the foot. Universal design, which is also aimed at the elderly and people with disabilities, requires socks that are easy to put on and take off, and that do not slip, bunch up, or feel compressive.

For this reason, there have conventionally been socks knitted with stretchable knitting yarn. However, such socks that are designed to conform to the foot due to their elasticity have the same knitting structure as conventional socks, and when the socks are worn on the foot, the contraction force of the part that is stretched causes a feeling of pressure. In addition, the stretched and unstretched parts follow the three-dimensional shape of a human foot, but the elasticity rather than the knitting structure forces it to conform to the three-dimensional shape of a human foot, making it easy to wear. As you wear your socks, the parts that are stretched to return to their original shape pull together the parts that aren't, making your socks easy to slip. In addition, since the stretched part protrudes or bulges, it must be stronger than other parts, but stretching causes the fabric to become thinner, reducing its cushioning properties and making it more likely to tear or wear out. .

Further, as in Patent Document 1, a sock is provided in which an extra thickness-increasing knitted portion is knitted at the toe portion. However, since the extra knitted portion is knitted by forward and reverse knitting, productivity is poor, knitting loss is likely to occur, and costs increase. Since forward/reverse knitting is knitted into a parallelogram or trapezoid, it forms a three-dimensional object by simply combining planes, and because the area increases, it is difficult to create a shape that follows the complex shape of a person's foot. There were some problems. The thickness of the knitted part for increasing thickness in Patent Document 1 is the three-dimensional height between the sole side of the foot and the instep side, and the thickness of the bulge part of the present invention described below is the thickness of the knitted fabric. .

Patent No. 2895473 specification

The present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned conventional problems, and an object of the present invention is to provide lower limb clothing having a bulging knitted part that mimics the shape of a human foot or leg, and a method for manufacturing the same.

In order to solve the above problem, the present invention has a bulge in all or a part of the knitted part corresponding to the bulge in the lower limb, and the bulge has a bulge in the course direction for each course or for each plurality of courses. It is characterized by being knitted with coarser stitches and increased thickness than the knitted parts continuous on both sides.
Here, the lower limb includes a person's "foot" from the ankle to the toe, and "leg" from the ankle to the pelvis.
It is preferable that the bulging part is knitted in one course or in a plurality of courses, including a part knitted with a coarser stitch and an increased thickness, and a part with a normal stitch or a narrower stitch.
The swollen portion is knitted with an increased thickness using additional yarn or replacement yarn depending on the degree of coarsening.

The bulge part, which is knitted with coarser stitches and increased thickness, has a larger gauge than the adjacent knitted part, resulting in a bulging three-dimensional knitted fabric.

It is preferable that the bulge is knitted in pile knitting.
Since the end of the additional thread or replacement thread is hidden by the sinker loop enlarged by pile knitting, the end of the additional thread or replacement thread is not noticeable, resulting in a clean product.

The additional yarn or the replacement yarn in the bulge has bulkiness, elasticity, coefficient of friction, abrasion resistance, high moisture retention, weak acidity, etc., compared to the knitting yarn used in the knitting portion other than the bulge. It is preferable that there is a difference in functionality or texture such as color or glossiness.
The additional yarn or the replacement yarn in the bulge has bulkiness, elasticity, high coefficient of friction, abrasion resistance, high moisture retention, and weak acidity compared to the knitting yarn used in the knitting portion other than the bulge. It is preferable that a thread having at least one of the above is used.
This makes it possible to provide cushioning properties, anti-slip properties, resistance to abrasion, and skin-friendly properties. In the case of additional threads, by weaving threads with a high coefficient of friction and wear resistance on the front side and threads with high moisture retention and weak acidity on the back side, it is possible to provide each function. Further, by making the additional yarn or replacement yarn in the bulge part different in color and texture from the knitted part other than the bulge part, each functionality can be visually appealed.

It is preferable that the plurality of bulges are knitted with regular stitches or narrow stitches sandwiched therebetween.
The bulge part is knitted with coarser stitches and increased thickness, and is knitted in one course or every few courses, making it more functional, such as knitted fabrics with unevenness and high coefficient of friction, and knitted fabrics with high breathability. A high quality knitted fabric can be obtained.

It is preferable that a heat-fusible thread is used as the additional thread or the replacement thread of the bulge.
After knitting, by placing it in a foot mold and heating it, it can be molded to follow the shape of the swollen parts of the foot, such as the ankle and the ball of the foot, and other parts can be made to have elasticity.

It is preferable that the knitted portion around the bulge is knitted with tighter stitches.
The coarsely woven bulge can be made to stand out by providing a part that is knitted with a narrower selvage around it, thereby increasing the functionality of the lower limb clothing that more closely conforms to the shape of the lower limbs.

The present invention is a method for manufacturing a sock having a bulge in all or part of a knitted part corresponding to a bulge in a lower leg, comprising:
When knitting the part having the bulge by normal knitting, from the start of knitting of the bulge to the end of knitting, for each course or multiple courses, knit the stitch coarser than the knitted parts continuous on both sides in the course direction. It is characterized by being knitted with increased thickness.

According to the present invention, the bulging portion becomes a thick, swollen three-dimensional fabric. Therefore, when the lower extremity clothing of the present invention is worn, the fabric of the lower extremity clothing corresponding to the bulges will not be stretched over the protruding parts such as the big toe, ball of the foot, Achilles tendon, etc. It can conform to the shape of your legs without causing any pressure, and the fabric will not become thin or shift.
In addition, the bulge can be knitted only by forward knitting using a circular knitting machine, and there is no need to knit extra fabric, resulting in good productivity and no knitting loss.
Furthermore, since the bulges can be provided in units of one wale per course, the bulges can be formed to follow the shape of the foot.
The bulges of the feet and legs are important parts for gripping the ground, such as the toes and the ball of the big toe, and for flexing the foot, and the bulges of the present invention have the effect of improving the functions of these parts. are doing.

Next, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.

FIG. 1(a) is a view of a sock 1, which is a lower limb clothing according to the present invention, as viewed from the sole of the foot. This sock 1 is composed of a leg part 2, a heel part 3, a foot part 4, and a toe part 5. The sock 1 has bulges 6a, 6b, 6c, 6d, and 6e (hereinafter collectively referred to as bulges 6) corresponding to the bulges or protrusions of the person's lower limbs shown in FIG. 1(b). .) is provided.

That is, the leg portion 2 is provided with bulges 6a and 6b at portions corresponding to the medial malleolus 10 and lateral malleolus (not shown) of the human foot 9, and is provided with a bulge 6c at a portion corresponding to the Achilles tendon 11. . The foot portion 4 is provided with an L-shaped bulge 6d in a portion corresponding to the front sole portion 12 (the portion between the ball of the big toe 14 and the ball of the lesser foot 15) and the outer sole portion 13 of the foot 9. A bulge 6e is provided at a portion corresponding to the ball of the foot 14.

Further, an arch support portion 7 is provided in a portion of the foot portion 4 corresponding to the arch 16. The toe section 5 is provided with a hallux accommodating section 8 which is three-dimensionally knitted at a portion corresponding to the back side of the hallux 17.

FIG. 2(a) shows the knitting structure of the first embodiment of each bulge 6 and the normally knitted portions 20 continuous to both sides thereof. The normal knitting section 20 is a plain knitting (plating knitting) using two threads, one of which is a front thread 21 and the other thread is a back thread 22. The bulge part 6 is knitted with a coarser stitch than the normal knitted parts 20 on both sides of the bulge part 6, and with an additional yarn 23a.

The thickness L1 of the bulge portion 6 can be made coarser by about 120 to 180% of the thickness L2 of the normal knitted portions 20 on both sides, depending on the thickness of the additional yarn. As shown in FIG. 3, the adjustment of the stitch length L is performed by moving the cylinder 30 of the circular knitting machine up and down or by changing the degree of pulling down of the needle 32 by the stitch 34, so that the sinker 31 and the hook 33 of the lowered needle 32 can be adjusted. This can be done by changing the size of the loops of the stitches by changing the dimension h between them.

When knitting the bulge part 6, the additional thread 23a is added to the back thread side or the opposite side of the front thread 21, depending on the intended function of the additional thread, and the terminal is placed on the inside of the sock 1. . Particularly in the case of yarn with a low coefficient of friction, by knitting the normal knitting section 20 with additional thread for the first stitch, regardless of the normal stitch, and making the stitches in that part tightly packed, the additional thread can be used even more. It is preferable to make it difficult to come off. The additional thread 23a may be added to each course, or may be added after leaving one or more courses apart.

The number of additional threads 23a can be determined depending on the coarseness of the stitch L. For example, if the overall thickness of the normal knitting section 20 is expressed in denier, where the front thread 21 is made of three No. 32 single yarns (32/1) and the back thread 22 is 40+70 denier spandex,
166.1(32/1)x3+40+70=608.3 denier.
In the bulge part 6, when adding one thread of thread count 32 to the front thread 21 as the additional yarn 23a, in order to make the thickness of the bulge part 6 match the thickness of the normal knitting part 20, the bulge part 6th L1
(166.1(32/1)x4+40+70)/608.3=1.27
Double it (to 127%).
In addition, when adding two yarns of 32nd count to the front yarn as additional yarns 23a, in order to make the thickness of the bulge part 6 suitable for the thickness of the normal knitting part 20, the thickness of the bulge part 6 is L1. of
(166.1(32/1)x5+40+70)/608.3=1.54
Double it (to 154%).

FIG. 2(b) is a modification of the first embodiment, and shows a knitting structure in which a substitute thread 23b is used instead of the additional thread 23a of the bulge 6 of the first embodiment. The normal knitted part 20 is knitted using a front thread 21 and a back thread 22, and the front thread 21 is cut before the bulge part 6 and the end is placed on the back side. The bulge portion 6 is knitted with a stitch L1 coarser than the stitch L2 of the normal knitting portions 20 on both sides of the bulge portion 6, and with replacement yarn 23b. The end of the replacement thread 23b is placed on the back side. As the replacement thread 23b, a thread thicker than the front thread 21 of the normal knitting section 20 is used, depending on the coarseness L1. For example, if the face yarn 21 of the normal knitting section 20 is made up of three No. 32 single yarns (32/1), the replacement yarn 23b of the bulge section 6 is made of No. 32 single yarns (32/1). A set of four is used.

The additional yarn 23a or the replacement yarn 23b includes a yarn having at least one of bulkiness, elasticity, high coefficient of friction, abrasion resistance, high moisture retention, and weak acidity compared to the yarn of the normal knitting section 20. Alternatively, threads with textures such as color and glossiness can be used. This makes it possible to provide cushioning properties, anti-slip properties, resistance to abrasion, and skin-friendly properties. By knitting the additional yarn 23a, which has a high coefficient of friction and wear resistance, on the surface yarn 21 side, it is possible to provide anti-slip and anti-friction functions. Furthermore, by knitting the highly moisturizing and slightly acidic additional yarn 23a with the back yarn 22 side, it is possible to provide a skin-friendly function. Furthermore, by using different colors and textures, you can visually emphasize each functionality. Examples of bulky yarns include false twisted yarns and conjugate yarns, and examples of elastic yarns include wool yarns. In addition, nanofront (registered trademark) is a yarn with a high coefficient of friction, Izanas (registered trademark) and Kevlar (registered trademark) are examples of abrasion-resistant yarns, and Skrawan-processed yarn and sericin-processed yarn are examples of highly moisturizing yarns. , Raffinan (registered trademark), etc. can be used as weakly acidic threads such as moist threads.

A thermofusible thread such as Flor (registered trademark) may be used as the additional thread 23a or the replacement thread 23b. When heat-melting additional thread 23a or replacement thread 23b is used, it can be placed in a foot shape after knitting and heated, so that it follows the shape of the swollen parts of the foot, such as the ankle, the ball of the foot, and the area where the sole of the foot touches the ground. Other parts, such as parts that bend such as the ball joint of the big toe and the ankle joint, can be made elastic.

The bulging part 6, which is knitted with coarse stitch L and using additional thread 23a or replacement thread 23b, has a larger gauge than the normal knitted part 20 adjacent thereto, and becomes a three-dimensional fabric that is thick and puffy. Therefore, when the socks are put on the feet, the bulges 6 of the socks are not stretched out against the protrusions of the medial and lateral malleolus 10, lateral malleolus, Achilles tendon 11, ball of the foot 14, big toe 17, etc., so that the feet remain stable. It can follow the shape of the fabric without causing any pressure, and the fabric will not become thin or shift. As will be described later, the same procedure can be applied to swollen parts such as the anterior edge of the tibia and the calf.

Further, the bulge portion 6 can be knitted only by forward knitting using a circular knitting machine, and there is no need to knit extra fabric, so productivity is good and no knitting loss occurs.

Further, since the bulges 6 can be provided in units of one wale per course, the bulges can be formed to follow the shape of the foot.

FIG. 4 is a developed view showing the knitting structure of the sock 1. The sock 1 is knitted from the leg part 2 toward the toe part 5 by a circular knitting machine.

First, the leg portion 2 is knitted into a cylindrical shape by normal knitting. The leg part 2 is knitted with substantially circular bulges 6a and 6b at parts corresponding to the inner and outer malleolus of the foot, and a substantially rectangular bulge 6c long in the wale direction at a part corresponding to the Achilles tendon of the foot. When knitting the course of the leg portion 2, the bulges 6a, 6b, and 6c are made coarser than the other portions, and additional yarn or replacement yarn is used for knitting.

Following the leg part 2, the heel part 3 is knitted into a bag shape by forward and reverse knitting.

After finishing the knitting of the heel part 3, the foot part 4 is knitted into a cylindrical shape by normal knitting. In the foot part 4, an L-shaped bulge 6d is knitted at a part corresponding to the outer side of the sole and the forefoot part of the sole. In the latter half of knitting the L-shaped bulge 6d, a substantially circular bulge 6e is knitted in a portion corresponding to the ball of the foot. The bulging part 6e of the ball of the foot is knitted with a coarser stitch and thicker than the bulging part 6d of the part corresponding to the forefoot part of the sole. In addition, the arch support part 7 is knitted by tuck knitting in the part corresponding to the arch of the foot.

Following the foot part 4, the toe part 5 is knitted continuously using forward and reverse knitting. The toe portion 5 is made by knitting a first trapezoidal fabric 24, a second trapezoidal fabric 25, a third trapezoidal fabric 26, and a fourth trapezoidal fabric 27 in this order. The first trapezoidal fabric 24 and the second trapezoidal fabric 25 are knitted in a three-dimensional manner corresponding to the back side of the big toe by alternately knitting a long trapezoidal fabric 28 followed by a short trapezoidal fabric 29 in the course direction. A hallux accommodating portion 8 is formed.

Instead of the three-dimensional big toe accommodating part 8, a bulge part may be knitted in the part corresponding to the big toe 17 or the back side of a toe other than the big toe 17 like a tabi, or - A bulge may be knitted in a portion corresponding to the back side of all the toes of the fourth toe 18a to 18c and the little toe 19.

The sock 1 is formed by joining the final knitting course 5a of the toe part 5 and the final knitting course 4a of the foot part 4. Finally, set it on a template and heat it with steam to mold it.

FIG. 5 shows a knitting structure of a second embodiment of each bulge 6 and the normal knitted portions 20 continuous on both sides thereof. In this knitting structure, the surface yarn sinker loop 35 of the bulge 6 is enlarged by pile knitting. According to this knitting structure, the ends of the additional yarns 23a are hidden by the surface yarn sinker loops 35 expanded by pile knitting, so the ends of the additional yarns 23a are not noticeable, resulting in a clean product.

FIG. 6 shows the knitting structure of the third embodiment of each bulge 6 and the normally knitted portions 20 continuous on both sides thereof. In this knitting structure, the stitch length L1 of the bulge portion 6 is made coarser for each course. That is, a part with a coarser stitch and additional yarn (L1 (large)) and a part with a normal stitch or a closer stitch (L1 (small)) are knitted for each course. According to this knitting structure, since the part with coarse stitching and added yarn (L1 (large)) is knitted for each course, a knitted fabric with unevenness and a high coefficient of friction is obtained. Note that the depth L1 of the bulge portion 6 may be made rougher not for each course but for each plurality of courses.

FIG. 7(a) shows the knitting structure of the fourth embodiment of each bulge 6 and the normally knitted portions 20 continuous on both sides thereof. In this knitting structure, the knitted portion 36 around the bulge 6 is knitted in a manner that the stitch L3 of the bulge 6 is smaller than the stitch L1 of the bulge 6 and the stitch L2 of the normal knitted portion 20. According to this knitting structure, the coarsely bulged portion 6 stands out due to the surrounding knitted portion 36, making it possible to create a sock that more closely conforms to the shape of the foot. This knitting structure is effective for the bulge 6c of the Achilles tendon.

FIG. 7(b) is a modification of the fourth embodiment, and shows a knitting structure in which a substitute thread 23b is used instead of the additional thread 23a of the bulge 6 of the fourth embodiment. In this modification, before knitting the bulge part 6 from the normal knitting part 20 and after knitting the bulge part 6, the surrounding knitting part 36 is knitted with a stitch L3 smaller than the stitch L2 of the normal knitting part 20. It will be done.

FIG. 8 shows an actually knitted sock according to the present invention. These socks are made of cotton acrylic for the outer threads and additional threads, and spandex for the inner threads, and have bulges 6a and 6b on the lateral and medial ankles, bulges 6d on the lateral and forefoot soles, and bulges on the ball of the foot. A portion 6e is formed to follow the shape of a foot.

FIG. 9 shows a modification of the sock of the present invention. In this sock, a plurality of bulges are provided sandwiching a normal weight or a reduced weight part. That is, a large number of bulges 6d-1 to 6d-n are knitted in a knitted part corresponding to the outer sole part 13 of the foot, and a normal knitted part or a knitted part with a reduced knitted part is knitted between them. . Furthermore, two bulges 6e-1 and 6e-2 are knitted in the knitted part corresponding to the ball of the big toe 14, and a normal knitted part or a knitted part with a reduced knitted part is knitted between them.

In this way, multiple bulges are provided sandwiching the regular or narrowed part, resulting in an uneven bulge overall, giving the shoe the effect of pushing against the ground or the inner sole of the shoe. be able to.

By changing the thickness of each of the plurality of bulges, the sock can be made to better fit the shape of the foot. For example, among the many bulges 6d-1 to 6d-n corresponding to the outer sole part 13, the bulge 6d-1 extends from the heel to the toe to approximately 1/3... and from the toe to the heel. The bulges 6d-n, 6d-n-1... up to about 1/3 of the way are made 160% of the normal knitted part, and the bulges in the middle between the heel and the toes are , set the density to 130% for the normal knitting part.

FIG. 10 shows another modification of the sock of the present invention. In this sock, a plurality of blocks of bulges 6d-1 are provided in the knitted part corresponding to the outer sole part 13 of the foot, each course having a coarser stitch and additional yarn 23a (or replacement yarn). It is. Each bulge 6d-1 has a coarser thread for each course and is provided with an additional thread 23a (or a replacement thread), so that unevenness is formed on the surface of the bulge 6d-1, providing an anti-slip function. .

FIG. 11 shows the leg portion 2 of the knee-high sock 1a according to the present invention, and FIG. 12 is a developed view of the leg portion 2 of the knee-high sock 1a. The leg portion 2 of the knee socks 1a is provided with bulges 6f and 6g in the knitted portion corresponding to the front edge 9b of the tibia and the calf 9c of the human leg 9a shown in FIG. 1(c). In addition, by eliminating the heel part 3 to the toe part of the high socks 1a of FIGS. 11 and 12 and leaving only the leg part 2, a calf supporter can be obtained. Further, by forming a bulge in the knitted part corresponding to the knee 9d of the human leg 9a, it can be used as a knee supporter. Even with such knee socks, calf supports, and knee supports, they can stably conform to the shape of the anterior edge of the tibia 9b of the leg 9a, the calf 9c, and the knee 9d, without causing any pressure, and because the fabric is thin. It has the same effects as the socks 1 described above, such as not slipping or slipping.
