The present invention relates to a covering equipment for sports used to prevent such injuries or to hold a part of the human body, or a covering equipment used for a foundation to adjust the body shape, and a method for manufacturing the same.

[Conventional technology]

Covering devices that cover a part of the human body to fix, support, compress, protect, insulate, or correct that part include shoulders, elbows, and braces for medical and sports purposes.
Items used for joints such as hands, hips, knees, feet, chest, abdomen, waist, etc.
There are those used for the trunk and extremities such as the forearm, upper arm, thigh, and lower leg, and various types are known in terms of form, structure, and material, depending on the site of use, disease details, and operability. There is. First, in terms of form, they can be roughly divided into band-shaped and cylindrical. Regarding the structure, there is a main body that covers the affected area, and a rigid structure that partially fixes, supports, compresses, protects, keeps warm, and corrects the affected area covered by the main body. Some are made of combinations of high quality materials, non-stretchable materials, materials with different elasticity, materials with different cushioning properties, materials with different thickness, etc., and also have belts attached to the main body. In terms of materials, in addition to materials with the characteristics mentioned above, there are breathable materials and highly hygroscopic materials, and these include single or composite materials such as woven fabrics, knitted fabrics, nonwoven fabrics, plastics, and rubber foams Consists of.

These covered orthoses need to have a good fit, good operability, good wearing comfort, and be able to fix, support, compress, protect, keep warm, or correct only the necessary parts, but the human body Since each person's body shape is different and the structure is not flat, various improvements have been made. For example, to improve the fit, the attachment method is laced, and when attaching an auxiliary belt to the brace, it is tightened again from above the brace. We adopt a three-dimensional structure in the orthosis design, consider the directionality of the material, use three-dimensional cutting and sewing technology, and combine materials with various characteristics to manufacture them. In addition, in order to improve operability, the lace-up method has been changed to a one-touch method using a hook-and-loop fastener, and the belt-like method has been replaced with a cylindrical method. moreover,
In order to fix, support, compress, protect, keep warm, correct, etc. only the necessary parts, we use three-dimensional sewing technology, attach auxiliary belts, use thick materials, add batt materials, and various other materials. Some things are being done, such as combining them.

However, conventional covered braces do not necessarily fit each patient well, and those with complex structures require a professional assistant to fit them, and they are also heavy, making it difficult for patients to wear them for long periods of time. There is no such thing yet that is painful and acts only on the necessary areas.

In addition, the covering equipment for foundation shields includes bras that make the breasts look beautiful, bottom girdles and hip-lifting girdles that make the waist line and hip line look beautiful, and stockings that make the legs look beautiful and improve blood circulation. These braces are mainly made by knitting nylon threads or urethane threads into a tubular shape, or by sewing woven fabrics.

The cylindrical foundation has a knitted structure that changes its size to suit the body shape, changes the thickness and type of thread, and changes its structure in order to apply partial pressure or change the supporting force. It is designed to provide the desired functionality. In addition, some sewing foundations are made from different materials such as knitted fabrics, woven fabrics, non-woven fabrics, materials with different physical properties, or materials with different physical properties that are combined or layered to create a three-dimensional structure.

However, these conventional foundations have the disadvantage that they are very complex to manufacture, resulting in high costs, and it is difficult to create foundations that precisely correspond to the different body shapes of individual wearers. is practically impossible.
