Description

Moisturizing Socks {Socks for keeping moisture of feet}

The present invention relates to a moisturizing socks, and more particularly, to a moisturizing sock which not only has excellent moisturizing action but also prevents the incubation of bacteria, which is an adverse effect generated by the excellent moisturizing action, continuously and strongly.

In general, a person with dry skin with less sweat on the heel or sole of the foot, when the humidity decreases, the skin becomes dry, the stratum corneum of the heel or the sole splits, and nerves or blood vessels are irritated to feel discomfort when walking.

A moisturizing sock (Application No. 20-2000-0025445) filed on September 6, 2000 by the present applicant to solve the above inconvenience is shown in FIG.

The moisturizing socks shown in FIG. 1 are woven from fibers to be worn over the lower part of the foot and leg, a sock body 10 surrounding the foot, and extending from the sock body 10 to cover the lower part of the leg. It consists of a sock neck 20.

Here, the socks body 10 is attached to an impervious body (30) to prevent the sweat released from the heel to the outside portion 11 to surround the heel (30), the bottom surrounding the sole From the middle of the portion 12 to the front portion 13, a coating 40 of silicon having an antimicrobial substance that inhibits the growth and reproduction of bacteria is attached to the water impermeable body 30 and the coating portion 40. As a result, an air vent 12a is formed in the bottom portion 12 therebetween.

At this time, the antimicrobial material of the coating part 40 is composed of peppermint powder, horseradish powder, and very small amount of silver powder (0.1 μm), and is directly exposed to the surface of the coating part 40 or exposed to the coating part 40 ) Is mixed with silicon and contained in the coating part 40.

Therefore, when the above-mentioned moisturizing socks are worn by the impervious body 30 and the coating part 40, the heel or the soles are dried, and the stratum corneum can be prevented from splitting. Even if excessive sweat is released from the foot by lifting air, the foot can be kept comfortable and the coating part (eczema, fungus, athlete's foot fungus) which is active in a humid habitat, which is an adverse reaction that occurs in proportion to the degree of moisturizing action It can be suppressed by the antimicrobial substance contained in 40).

However, such moisturizing socks have a problem in that athlete's foot, eczema, and bad smell are caused because the antimicrobial effect is not continuously exerted because the antimicrobial substance is coated or contained in the coating part 40.

That is, if the antimicrobial substance is applied to the silicone 40, the antimicrobial substance is not continuously exerted because the antimicrobial substance is melted due to washing or the antimicrobial substance is worn out due to friction with the foot when walking, and the antimicrobial substance is applied to the silicone 40. If it contains a small amount of exposure to the air because the molecular movement is not active antibacterial action is not exhibited strongly.

The present invention is to solve the problems of the prior art described above, athlete's foot, which is an adverse action generated in proportion to the degree of moisturizing action by firmly attaching silver particles having a predetermined size having antibacterial effect to the moisturizing socks. It aims to provide a moisturizing sock that can prevent eczema and odor continuously and powerfully, and further strengthen the moisturizing action of the moisturizing sock by the continuous and strong antibacterial effect of silver.

<Explanation of symbols on main parts of the drawings>

110: body of moisturizing socks 110: neck of moisturizing socks

111: rear part of the body 112: bottom part of the body

113: front part of the body 130: heel moisturizing silicone

140: silicon for moisturizing the sole 150: silver particles

The present invention for achieving the above technical problem is a sock body comprising a sock body surrounding the foot to be worn over the lower portion of the foot and legs and a sock neck extending from the sock body to cover the lower portion of the leg, the Socks body is attached to the heel moisturizing silicone is attached to the back portion surrounding the heel, the heel moisturizing silicone is characterized in that a number of silver particles attached to the surface to suppress the growth and reproduction of bacteria. .

Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.

Figure 2 is a partial cross-sectional view showing an embodiment of the moisturizing socks according to the present invention, the present invention as shown here is a sock body 110 is woven with fibers to wrap the foot, this sock body 110 Consists of a sock neck 120 that is woven to wrap the lower part of the leg in.

Here, the sock body 110 is attached to the soft heel moisturizing silicone 130 so as to wrap the heel to the back portion 111 surrounding the heel, the front portion from the middle of the bottom portion 112 to wrap the sole A soft sole moisturizing silicone 140 is attached to cover the sole over 113.

In this case, although the heel and sole moisturizing silicone 130 and 140 are respectively attached to the inner surface of the rear portion 111 and the bottom portion 112 of the sock body 110, the outer side is opposite. It can be attached to the surface.

In addition, since the cracking of the stratum corneum due to dryness of the skin occurs more frequently on the heel than the sole of the foot, only the heel moisturizing silicone 130 may be attached without the sole moisturizing silicone 140 to simplify the configuration.

Therefore, put the foot in the sock body 110 so that the heel is in contact with the heel moisturizing silicone 130, the sole is in contact with the sole of the sole moisturizing silicone 140, the heel and the sole is the heel and sole Since it is wrapped in the moisturizing silicone 130,140, the sweat secreted from the heel and the sole is prevented from being diverted to the outside, as well as the elasticity of the heel and sole moisturizing silicone 130 and 140 is soft. This reduces the load on the heel and sole of the foot when walking.

The attachment of the heel and sole moisturizing silicone 130 and 140 is the same as the process of attaching the coating portion (reference numeral 40 in FIG. 1) described in the prior art application No. 20-2000-0025445. Is done.

In particular, the present invention suppresses the development and reproduction of various bacteria (eczema, fungus, athlete's foot fungus) that act as a habitat for the sock body 110 moistened by the moisturizing action of the heel and sole moisturizing silicone 130 and 140. Silver particles 150 having a size of 0.2 to 0.3 mm are attached to the entire surface of the heel and sole moisturizing silicone 130 and 140.

For your reference, I have described the effects of silver on the Internet site. (Http://www.koreaeundan.co.kr/Mainpage/Hot%20news/Good_silver4.htm)

"If you have younger people in your body, your five intestines are comfortable, your mind and body are stable, you can drive away the morale, lighten your body and lengthen your life." (Consensus) 면 If the silver content in the human body falls below the standard, it is highly likely that the disease will be affected by a decrease in immunity. (Dr. Robert Becker) Knew. In fact, silver has been medically proven to have the best efficacy among the known antimicrobial substances. Young is not simply a chemically inert metal. Medical research that has been conducted over the last century has confirmed that silver is a versatile and powerful medically available substance. Today, silver is still used to treat diseases that need to be treated with antimicrobial substances, such as burns, infections in the eyes, ears, nose, throat, inflammation, and other infections or infections caused by other microorganisms.

Applicant is to suppress the development and propagation of various bacteria generated by moisturizing action by applying to the present invention by paying attention to the ㉣ and ㉤ items of the above-mentioned effect of silver.

In addition, such silver is not only harmless to the human body but is also a water-soluble substance and is solid, so as to prevent the antibacterial activity from being deteriorated due to friction with the foot (or the sole or the shoe) when dissolving or walking due to washing as in the prior art. In other words, there is also an advantage that has a persistent and strong antibacterial effect.

FIG. 3 is an enlarged view of a portion A of FIG. 2, and illustrates the attachment structure of the silver particles 150.

In this case, only the structure in which the silver particles 150 are attached to the sole moisturizing silicon 140 is omitted since the silver particles 150 are attached to the heel moisturizing silicon 130 in the same structure.

As shown in FIG. 3, the silver particles 150 are attached to the sole moisturizing silicon 140 by one of two structures. The first one is the sole moisturizing silicon 140 as shown in [I] of FIG. 3. After applying the adhesive evenly over the entire surface of the) and sprinkling the silver particles 150 thereon, the second is to attach the silicone for moisturizing the sole to the sock body 110 as shown in [II] of FIG. When the foot sole moisturizing silicon 140 is solidified by putting the silver particles 150 on the surface to be buried.

Therefore, when the silver particles 150 are attached as described above, the silver particles 150 are firmly attached to the sole moisturizing silicon 140 due to the excellent adhesion compatibility between silver and silicon.

On the other hand, if the silver particles 150 as described above are properly formed in size can also obtain acupressure effect.

That is, when the silver particles 150 are formed to have a diameter of approximately 3 to 5 mm and the silver particles 150 are attached to the heel and sole moisturizing silicones 130 and 140, the silicone particles 130 for heel and sole moisturizing (130) ( Since the silver particles 150 are properly protruded at 140, the pressure is naturally produced by the load applied to the foot when the present invention is worn.

Of course, if the priority is to wear than the function of the acupressure it is good to form the size of the silver particles 150.

Figure 4 is a cross-sectional view showing another embodiment of the moisturizing socks according to the present invention.

The other embodiment of the present invention is different from the other configuration is the same as compared to the embodiment, whereas only the attachment structure of the heel and sole moisturizing silicone (130) 140.

That is, as shown in FIG. 4, the heel and sole moisturizing silicone 130 and 140 are attached in two layers to the rear part 111 and the bottom part 112 of the sock body 110, respectively.

In this case, the heel moisturizing silicone 130 is attached to face each other with the rear part 111 interposed between the inside and the outside of the rear part 111, and the sole moisturizing silicon 140 also has the bottom part 112 therebetween. Attached to each other.

Therefore, the two-ply heel and sole moisturizing silicone (130) 140, because the sweat secreted from the heel and the sole of the sole to prevent the shedding of the double, respectively, the moisturizing action is further enhanced.

The reinforcement of the moisturizing action by the double heel and sole moisturizing silicone 130 and 140 is a temporary and decaying antimicrobial substance with a problem of providing a habitat for bacteria, which is an adverse reaction occurring in proportion to the degree of moisturizing action. Due to the antimicrobial activity of the prior art, there was some limitations, but the present invention is made possible by the silver particles 150 exhibiting a continuous and strong antibacterial action.

Reference numeral 112a, not described above, is a ventilation portion formed in the bottom portion 112 therebetween by the heel moisturizing silicone 130 and the sole moisturizing silicone 140, and is referred to as the ventilation portion 112a. Lifting air flows through the sock body 110 to adjust the temperature and moisture of the foot, so that it is always possible to maintain a comfortable foot state.

On the other hand, the applicant has commissioned the present invention to the Korea Textile Technology Research Institute to prove the antibacterial effect of the present invention was tested by the KS K 0693: 2001 test method.

Silver particles 150 of the present invention tested for reference is 99.51% by weight of silver (Ag), 0.002% by weight of lead (Pb), 0.013% by weight of bismuth (Bi), 0.020% by weight of copper (Cu), iron (Fe) 0.008 It is stepped on the composition by weight percent.

exam

① Prepare two pairs of moisturizing socks (hereinafter referred to as sample) of the present invention with silver particles attached and two pairs of moisturizing socks (hereinafter referred to as reference) with only silver particles in the present design. Cocci were inoculated with the remaining samples and the control pieces, respectively.

② Immediately after inoculation of each sample and control, the number of bacteria per ml was measured.

③ The yellow glucose and pneumococci inoculated into each sample and control were incubated for 18 hours.

④ After the incubation of the sample and the control piece, the number of bacteria was measured per ml.

conclusion

Comparing the values shown in ② and ④, the control group significantly increased the number of Staphylococcus aureus and pneumococci after culture, but the number of Staphylococcus aureus and Pneumococci was significantly decreased after the culture.

As described above, the present invention has a moisturizing silicone attached to the part of the heel or the sole of the sock, and the silver particles adhere to the surface of the silicon. Not only can it prevent the adverse reactions such as eczema, athlete's foot, and odor, but because silver particles are not water-soluble substances, they do not wear due to washing and thus have a continuous antibacterial effect.

Therefore, there is also an advantage that can strengthen the moisturizing action by the antibacterial action of the persistent and powerful silver particles.

In addition, due to the elasticity of silicone itself, the load applied to the foot is alleviated, and when the size of the silver particles is properly formed, there is an advantage that the acupressure effect can be obtained when walking.
