The thickness of this reinforcing member 12 depends on the properties of the rubber material.
It may be determined as appropriate depending on the desired tension, and it is also possible to create different tensions in different parts by setting different thicknesses in different parts. Furthermore, dyes may be mixed into the rubber material to give it various colors to improve its aesthetic appearance, and a reinforcing member may be provided on the back side of the supporter to make it less noticeable. Furthermore, a reinforcing material such as glass fiber or mica flakes may be mixed into the rubber material to cause the reinforcing member to bear a larger tension.
