Description

The present invention relates to a variable compression sleeve to which an automatic motor control system is applied and a method for controlling the variable compression sleeve.

In recent years, as research on clothing aimed at preventing injuries and improving physical ability is progressing, functional clothing is being made.

Functional garments are also being released in the form of compression garments (eg, compression stockings, compression protectors) for the purpose of increasing blood flow and reducing muscle fatigue recovery time.

Compression garments can maximize the function only when the degree of compression is changed according to the purpose, type of each part, and individual preference, so the method of applying variable pressure is being considered as important.

Therefore, there was a need to develop a variable compression sleeve with an automatic compression control mechanism that can maximize convenience and functional effects because it is convenient to control compression compared to the conventional compression method, and the degree of compression can be changed to the desired compression strength by each user.
