Each of the Patent Documents 1 to 4 uses a metal wire or tube or a plate material made of plastic as a base material, and as in Patent Document 1, it is characterized by portability by making it possible to assemble. There is a problem that at least both bulk and weight can not be said to be a practical configuration to carry on hand.

In particular, with regard to a pantyhose wearing aid which is more frequently used than a stocking, although disclosed as a modified example in Patent Document 2, for example, bulk and weight are substantially doubled, and the problem of the portability is solved. It was not.

Furthermore, in

Patent Documents

1, 2 and 4, it is necessary to turn the toes coaxially with the lower leg at the time of wearing, and in particular, there is a problem that a user who is inconvenient in turning the ankle is loaded. there were. In order to avoid such a load, it is necessary for the wearing instrument to follow the line between the foot and the lower leg smoothly in accordance with the difference in the mounting angle between the foot and the lower leg. With respect to such a problem, in the configuration as disclosed in Patent Document 3, there is a problem that the problem of the portability can not be solved and the manufacturing cost is also increased because the size of the tool is increased and the number of parts is also increased. The

An object of the present invention is to provide a socks attachment aid which can be easily manufactured at low cost, and is excellent in portability. In addition, it is an object of the present invention to provide an auxiliary tool that can achieve the same purpose even with socks that are attached to both legs at one time instead of being attached individually to the legs as in pantyhose.

In view of the above problems, the sock attachment assisting tool according to the present invention is formed by a flat sock attachment portion made of a flexible elastic member and a U-shaped notch at the center of the sock attachment portion. Of the foot sole guide portion, and a pair of respective ends of a relative surface formed on the sock attachment portion via the foot sole guide portion and two crests of the foot sole guide portion in parallel Having a strap and
When the sock mounting portion bends the end sides of the relative surface in mutually opposing directions, the foot sole guide portion maintains the planar shape, and a portion where the foot sole guide portion is formed has a side opening. The most important feature is to make it possible to form a hollow, hollow and semi-bottomed cylinder. According to this configuration, the entire device is flat except when wearing socks.

The sock attachment portion may be formed into a rectangular shape although the shape at the time of expansion is not limited as long as the sock attachment portion can be formed into a half bottomed cylindrical shape by bending. It is because it is easy to form the said half non-bottomed cylindrical shape, and when it pulls with a cord part, it is easy to distribute force uniformly to the whole instrument. Furthermore, in order to exert uniform traction force, when the sock mounting portion is rectangular, one side of the sock mounting portion and the upper side portion connecting the two top portions of the foot sole guide portion face each other in parallel. Thus, the foot sole guide portion may be formed, one side of the sock attachment portion may be the upper side, the opposite side of the upper side may be the bottom side, and the strap portion may be connected to both ends of the bottom side.

The upper side of the sock mounting portion may be formed in an arc shape with a predetermined curvature toward the convex direction. According to this configuration, when the socks are worn, it is possible to reduce catching and smoothly wear.

Further, tongues may be provided on both tops of the foot sole guide portion, and the strap portion may be connected to the tongue. By pressing the tongue with the non-mounted foot, the sock mounting portion and the foot sole guide part are separated, promoting smooth wearing.

Projection pieces may be provided in the longitudinal direction from both end portions of the bottom side, and engaging cut portions may be formed on both the projection pieces to maintain the half bottomed cylindrical shape by engaging. According to this configuration, when the socks are turned over and attached to the sock attachment part, in order to maintain the sock attachment part in a half bottomed cylindrical shape, it is not necessary to hold down with one hand, and attachment is possible with both hands And can be easily installed.

As for pantyhose, as for socks attached to both legs at one time, it has a connecting part that integrally connects the two socks attachment aids in a straight line at the bottom side, and the two socks attached parts What is necessary is just to make it between the opposing sides facing to the shape which carried out concave shape to the said connection part.

About the thing for the said pantyhose, it replaces with the said locking notch part in order to maintain the said half non-bottomed cylindrical shape, It fits on the base of each sock mounting part formed in the said half non-bottomed cylindrical shape Having a groove member to be engaged, a holding portion for holding both end portions of the bottom side of each sock mounting portion, and provided with a horizontal extending member for horizontally holding each holding portion via a linear rod-like body; Furthermore, instead of the rod-like body, the cross-bridge member may be straddled by a string or the like.

According to the present invention, since it can be made flat when not in use, there is an effect that it becomes easy to carry and store.

In addition, since the number of parts is small and the processing is easy, it is possible to produce at low cost.

Since it can be formed in a flat shape, the degree of freedom in print design is improved, and a design can be made to increase purchase desire, and an effect of contributing to sales promotion by printing an advertisement or the like is achieved.

Since the material is a flexible elastic member, it can be applied regardless of the size of socks and is economical.

In addition, by connecting two, it can be used as a wear aid for panty toss kings, which is more in demand than stocking, so that the market range can be expanded.

Referring to FIG. 1, 1 is a socks attachment aid according to the present invention. The sock attachment part 11 which becomes the main-body part of the sock attachment auxiliary tool 1 is flat, and is formed of a flexible elastic member. When not in use, the entire instrument can be made flat, so it is excellent in portability and storability. The material of the sock mounting portion 11 is not particularly limited as long as it is a flat elastic member in a normal state and has flexibility capable of being bent at the time of use, but the viewpoint of manufacturing cost, processing ease, weight reduction, etc. It is preferable to use a resin such as polypropylene.

As will be described later, the shape of the sock mounting portion 11 is not limited as long as it can be bent and formed into a half bottomed cylindrical shape, the shape in the normal state does not matter, but the half bottomed cylindrical shape is compared It is preferable that it has a rectangular shape so that it can be performed without difficulty. In the present embodiment, the rectangular sock attachment unit 11 will be described below.

The upper side 11a of the sock mounting portion 11 is formed in an arc with a constant curvature in the convex direction, and the base 11b is linear. The upper side 11a forms the upper end periphery at the time of forming in the said half non-bottom cylindrical shape.

At the approximate center of the sock mounting portion 11, a U-shaped notch portion 14 forms a foot sole guide portion 15. Although the foot sole guide portion 15 is separated from the sock mounting portion 11 by the notch portion 14, the U-shaped open end side is not cut out, so it is integrally integrated with the sock mounting portion 11 It has become. In addition, between the notch part 14 and the foot sole guide part 15 may be cut out by fixed width | variety, and you may space apart by predetermined spacing.

Phase body surfaces

12 and 13 are formed on the left and right sides of the notch portion 14 in the lateral direction via the foot sole guide portion 15. The relative surfaces 12 and 13 form side surfaces when formed in the above-mentioned half-bottomed bottom cylindrical shape.

Both ends 16 of the bottom side 11b and both tops 17 of the U-shaped closed end of the foot sole guide 15 are opened, and when wearing socks, both ends of the strap 18 pulling the sock attachment 11 are inserted through each opening ing. Both ends of the strap portion 18 inserted into the opening are tied with a diameter larger than that of the opening, such as a ball knot, and locked so as not to fall out of the opening. The strap portion 18 is composed of a pair of straps, and both ends of one strap are respectively locked to the end portion 16 of the bottom side 11b on the side of the body surface 12 and the top portion 17 of the sole guide portion 15 Both ends of the hook are locked to the end 16 of the bottom 11 b on the side of the body surface 13 and the top 17 of the foot guide portion 15. Each strap constituting the strap portion 18 is folded back at a position substantially bisecting in the longitudinal direction by the above-mentioned locking, and forms a ring shape through the sock mounting portion 11, and from the folding point to the end portion 16 is lower The thigh traction portion 18b, and the portion from the turning point to the top portion 17 is a foot traction portion 18a.

The top portion 17 of the foot sole guide portion 15 may be formed to form the

tongue pieces

15a and 15b.

FIG. 2 shows a modified example of the sock attachment aid. The same components as those in FIG. 1 are assigned the same reference numerals and detailed explanations thereof will be omitted.

The sock mounting portion 11 bends the opposing

surfaces

12 and 13 in the opposite direction to form a half bottomed non-bottom cylindrical shape, but since the material is an elastic body, in order to maintain the above half non-bottom bottom cylindrical shape At least, you must wear socks while holding the tube with one hand.

In the present embodiment, in order to maintain the non-bottom cylindrical shape in half, the protrusions 19 are provided in the longitudinal direction from the both end portions 16 of the bottom 11b to the bottom 11b, and one protrusion 19 (in the present embodiment) The slit 19a is formed in the direction of the upper side 11a from the base 11b in the protrusion 19 on the side of the relative surface 12, and the other protrusion 19 (in the present embodiment, the protrusion 19 on the side of the relative surface 13) is formed. At a position facing the slit 19a, the slit 19b is formed in the reverse direction, that is, in the direction from the upper side of the protrusion 19 to the base 11b. When the sock mounting portion 11 is bent to form the half bottomed cylindrical shape, the two projecting portions 19 are polymerized and the slit 19a and the slit 19b are engaged to suppress return resistance due to elastic force. Since it can be locked, the shape can be maintained. FIG. 2 (a) shows the sock mounting portion 11 in a normal state, that is, at the time of deployment, and FIG. 2 (b) shows a state in which the

slits

19a and 19b are engaged and locked.

Hereinafter, the method of use (action) of the sock attachment aid according to the present invention will be described with reference to FIG. In the present embodiment, socks which are worn up to the thigh, for example, a stocking S will be described as an example.

As shown in FIG. 3A, the sock mounting portion 11 is bent to form a half-bottomed cylindrical shape. That is, by dividing and bending the end sides of the

relative surfaces

12 and 13 in the opposite direction, a half and bottomless cylindrical shape is formed. In the present embodiment, the cylindrical shape is maintained by the

slits

19a and 19b because the embodiment in which the projection 19 described in FIG. 2 is provided is used.

At this time, although the upper side 11a forms the cylindrical upper end peripheral portion of the half bottomed cylindrical bottom, as described above, since it is formed in an arc with a constant curvature in the convex direction, the upper end peripheral is In a side view, it is inclined downward from the top of the arc to the end.

The stocking S is turned over and compressed from near the open end (insertion portion of the foot) in the vicinity of the upper end peripheral edge of the above-mentioned half bottomed bottom cylindrical tubular shape so as to cover the entire sock mounting portion 11 in the direction of the bottom 11b. When the stocking S is attached, the upper side 11a is inclined downward as described above, which makes it easy to attach, reduces hooking, and is considered not to damage the stocking S when attached.

By the way, when the foot sole guide portion 15 forms the above-mentioned half-bottom non-bottom cylindrical cylindrical shape, it is in the state of being separated by the notch portion 14 except for the U-shaped open end side. Therefore, it is not influenced by the bending and maintains a substantially flat state. Therefore, when the cylindrical shape is formed, the foot sole guide portion 15 inclines in the direction away from the cylindrical shape from the open end of the U-shape toward the closed end formed by the top 17. Since the stocking S is mounted avoiding the foot sole guide portion 15 in such a state, a space is formed between the sock mounting portion 11 and the foot sole guide portion 15.

Since the stocking S is gathered close to the bottom 11b, the stocking S forms an upper surface in a state of being substantially attached at the upper end periphery formed by the upper side 11a. However, leaving some slack, the linking (toe portion) of the stocking S forms an insertion portion Si which is recessed toward the inside of the cylindrical shape.

In the state of FIG. 3A, the toes of the foot portion F are inserted from the insertion portion Si of the stocking S. At this time, as shown in FIG. 3B, in the sock attachment portion 11 formed in the cylindrical shape, the insertion portion Si and the toe of the foot portion F face each other, and the foot sole guide portion 15 is inserted at the time of insertion. It is in a state of falling down so as to hit the sole of the foot F. In order to smoothly insert the foot portion F, the sock mounting portion 11 may be fixed by holding the

tongue piece

15a or 15b with the thumb or the like of the foot not wearing the stocking S. For example, when wearing the stocking S is the right foot, the tongue 15b is held down with the thumb of the left foot, and when the stocking S is worn the left foot, the tongue 15a should be held with the thumb of the right foot.

When the foot portion F is inserted from the insertion portion Si and the strap portion 18 is pulled in the lower leg L direction, the stocking S is mounted while the foot sole guide portion 15 slides on the sole of the foot portion F. Wearing of the stocking S in the range of the foot portion F is mainly performed by pulling the foot traction portion 18a side linked to the top portion 17 of the foot guide portion 15 of the cord portion 18 in the arrow direction D1. Since the portion 15 is strongly drawn, a force is applied in the direction corresponding to the insertion direction of the foot portion F, and the smooth insertion of the stockings S becomes possible.

When the heel of the foot portion F reaches the U-shaped open end vicinity of the foot sole guide portion 15, that is, the portion which is flush with the sock mounting portion 11, the mounting direction of the stockings S is lower thigh The sock mounting portion 11 must be raised in accordance with the direction of L, that is, the inclined direction of the lower leg L from the above-mentioned folded state. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 3C, both of the foot pulling portion 18a side and the lower thigh pulling portion 18b side of the cord portion 18 may be pulled in the arrow directions D1 and D2 with substantially equal force. The cord portion 18 may be colored in different colors or the like to distinguish between the foot traction portion 18 a and the lower thigh traction portion 18 b. When pulling up in the directions D1 and D2 is performed up to the thigh, the open end of the stocking S is reached, the stocking S is attached to the leg, and the sock attachment assisting instrument 1 is detached from the leg.

Since the socks attachment aid 1 according to the present invention is configured to smoothly follow the foot F and the lower leg L different in the pulling direction, the foot and the leg do not have to be moved according to the appliance. , The stocking S can be easily attached. Therefore, it is highly convenient for users who have difficulty moving the legs and legs arbitrarily, such as elderly people and disabled people in particular.
