DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to a leg supporter.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, there are socks.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides a cylindrical upper supporter body for covering a calf and tightening a calf, and a cylindrical lower supporter for covering an arch part of a foot and tightening an arch part. A leg supporter characterized by comprising a supporter body.

In the leg supporter of the present invention, the upper supporter body tightens the calf portion where blood is easily congested, and the lower supporter body tightens the arch portion of the foot which is also prone to blood congestion, thereby promoting blood circulation of the legs. Moreover, since the leg supporter of the present invention is divided into two parts, an upper supporter body for tightening the calf part and a lower supporter body for tightening the arch part of the foot, the effect of promoting blood circulation is extremely excellent. .

[0007] In the present invention, the upper supporter body has a central part that tightens the calf with high pressure, two ends that tighten the calf with low pressure, and a part between the central part and both ends that tightens the calf with medium pressure. It is preferable that the lower supporter body is one that strongly clamps the arch of the foot with high pressure. By performing such pressure adjustment,
When the leg is exercised, the leg supporter of the present invention has the effect of massaging the leg, and the blood circulation promoting effect is further increased, and the fatigue relieving effect is also enhanced.

[0008] In the leg supporter of the present invention, it is more appropriate to knit the natural silk on the inside that touches the skin. Thereby, the following effects are obtained. Natural silk activates subcutaneous cells and promotes blood circulation more. Natural silk absorbs sweat and fat, keeping the skin smooth and refreshing, and protects feet from the cold caused by sweat. Since natural silk suppresses the growth of bacteria, the generation of foul odors from the feet is suppressed.

FIG. 1 is an explanatory view showing a leg supporter according to an embodiment of the present invention. This leg supporter includes a cylindrical upper supporter body 2 that covers the calf and tightens the calf, and a cylindrical lower supporter body 4 that covers the arch of the foot and tightens the arch. The upper supporter body 2 has a central part that tightens the calf with high pressure, two ends that tighten the calf with low pressure, and a part between the central part and both ends that tightens the calf with medium pressure. The lower supporter body 4 tightens the arch of the foot with high pressure. Both the upper supporter body 2 and the lower supporter body 4 are knitted with nylon fiber and polyurethane fiber, and natural silk is knitted on the inner side that comes into contact with the skin.

[0010]

According to the leg supporter of the present invention, blood circulation of the legs can be promoted, swelling of the legs can be eliminated, and fatigue can be relieved.
