First, the back surface of the pad 110 is in close contact with the user's knee 10, and one or more pockets 111 are formed in the pad 110.

Here, it is preferable that the pad 110 is made of a fabric using fibers, and the pad 110 is formed to have a size capable of covering the entire surface of the knee 10 with a certain width.

In addition, the pad 110 may have a rectangular or oval shape so as to cover the user's knee 10 in a corresponding shape.

The pockets 111 are formed in a state in which the pockets 111 are divided along a vertical direction with reference to a horizontal direction sewing line 112, and are provided so as to be foldable with reference to a sewing line 112.

At this time, it is preferable that the pocket 111 is formed in a shape corresponding to the storage pack 130 so that the storage pack 130 will not flow.

The coupling band 120 is for fixing the pad 110 to the user's knee 10 and the coupling band 120 has a predetermined length so as to cover the knee 10.

Here, a portion of the coupling band 120 may be coupled to one side or both sides of the pad 110, respectively.

For example, a portion of the coupling band 120 may be coupled to the backside of the pad 110 such that the coupling portion is not exposed forward, as shown in FIGS.

The coupling bands 120 are coupled to the upper and lower ends of the pads 110 via the pockets 111 so as to cover the knees 10 in the vertical direction.

Of course, the number of the coupling bands 120 may be two or more along the vertical direction, or the vertical width of the coupling bands 120 may be increased to one.

The coupling band 120 has a first attachment end 121 at one longitudinal end and a second attachment end 122 at the other end opposite to the first attachment end 121. [

The male and female Velcro tapes 123 are respectively coupled to corresponding ones of the first attachment end 121 and the second attachment end 122 so as to correspond to each other.

Of course, corresponding fastening means (such as a buckle) other than the Velcro tape 123 may be applied to the corresponding surface of the first attachment stage 121 and the second attachment stage 122.

The storage pack 130 is embedded in the pocket 111 of the pad 110 and the viscous material C is stored in the vacuum state in the storage pack 130.

Here, the storage pack 130 may be made of a resin-based material having flexibility such that it is easily deformed during storage and wearing.

For example, the storage pack 130 may be made of a material such as vinyl, and the storage pack 130 may be made of a transparent color so that the viscoelastic material C stored therein can be seen from the outside .

In addition, the storage pack 130 may be sealed with a viscoelastic material C by inserting a viscoelastic material C into the interior of the storage pack 130 by a heat fusion method.

It is preferable that the storage pack 130 is formed to have a length in the left and right direction so as to correspond to the pocket 111 described above so that the knee 10 can be easily bent.

Viscoelastic material (C) refers to a substance that has the property of flowing liquid, but has a property of a solid temporarily when an external stimulus is applied.

There are various kinds of viscoelastic material (C) such as slime, silly putty, etc. made of starch which hardens when applied from the outside.

For this purpose, the viscoelastic material (C) may be a slime prepared by mixing a polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) liquid paste and a borax solution.

Herein, an edible pigment is added to the mixture of polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) liquid pool and borax solution so as to have a certain color.

For example, a certain amount of borax solution may be made in a container, and a slime may be made by adding a polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) liquid and an edible pigment to the borax.

Thereafter, the slime made in the container is taken out, and then the external force is applied by applying a force with a hand, etc., and the solid property is changed to have a certain elastic force.

If you do not apply force to the slime, the slime will change in properties like a liquid flowing down from your hand.

Alternatively, the viscoelastic material (C) may be a silly putty made of a starch solution mixed with starch and water.

Since the viscoelastic material C has flexibility, the shape of the viscoelastic material C is easily deformed, and when the impact is applied, the strength is increased, so that the viscoelastic material C is not easily broken or worn, and thus the user's knee 10 can be safely protected.
