[0032] The present application provides an exoskeleton knee pad, which comprises: a knee pad and an exoskeleton support layer.

[0033] like Figure 1 As shown, the knee pad described in the present application is composed of the knee pad sleeve and the exoskeleton support layer, wherein the knee pad sleeve is a fabric (woven mesh) formed by plain weaving, which is divided into two layers of fabric, an inner surface and an outer surface, the two layers of fabric completely overlap, and the two layers of fabric are closed and connected by a duvet 11 to make the fabric integrated into one.

[0034] The knee brace comprises three sequentially connected regions, namely, an upper cuff 10, a middle portion 20 of the knee brace and a lower cuff 30. The three regions have no obvious boundaries in production and use, and are only divided by the breathable texture and the position of the massage pad.

[0035] like Figure 1-Figure 3 As shown, the knee pad described in the present application has a breathable pattern, and the breathable pattern is divided into a first breathable pattern 21 and a second breathable pattern 22. The first breathable pattern 21 is an annular breathable pattern, and the first breathable pattern 21 is arranged in a concave arc on the front of the middle part 20 of the knee pad, and the lowest edge of the first breathable pattern 21 is located on the front of the middle part 20 of the knee pad, and coincides with the lowest edge of the middle part 20 of the knee pad. The first breathable pattern 21 is a strip-shaped breathable pattern horizontally arranged along the knee pad hem 11 in the area other than the popliteal fossa of the middle part 20 of the knee pad. The second breathable pattern 22 is located in the popliteal fossa of the knee pad, and is a breathable pattern with an irregular pattern.

[0036] In a specific embodiment of the present application, Figure 5As shown, the irregular figure G can be regarded as two parts, the upper part is rhombus A and rhombus B connected by short sides, combined into a non-rhombus irregular figure E; the lower part is rhombus C and rhombus D connected by long sides, combined into a non-rhombus irregular figure F; the irregular figure E is on the top, and the irregular figure F is stacked on the bottom to form the irregular figure G.

[0037] In a specific embodiment of the present application, Figure 6 As shown, the breathable texture is formed by macro-hole weaving, and a fixed weaving feature is formed by adjusting the needle bed spacing of the fabric in different horizontal rows.

[0038] In a specific embodiment of the present application, during use, as the user applies force during movement, such as Figure 5 The air permeable texture shown has larger gaps between them, because the tension creates larger air pores.

[0039] In a specific embodiment of the present application, the exoskeleton support layer 1 is any columnar protrusion that meets the strength requirements.

[0040] In a specific embodiment of the present application, the knee pad sleeve can be provided with a decorative braided fabric with a double-needle sesame dot knitting method.

[0041] In a specific embodiment of the present application, the knee pad sleeve is woven by plain weaving or covered plain weaving.

[0042] In a specific embodiment of the present application, there is a silicone pattern at any position of the upper cuff 10, the middle part 20 of the knee brace and the lower cuff 30 of the knee brace.

[0043] In a specific embodiment of the present application, the knee brace is woven with conventional yarn or fine yarn.

[0044] In a specific embodiment of the present application, there are reflective strips at any position of the upper cuff 10 , the middle portion 20 , and the lower cuff 30 of the knee brace.

[0045] In a specific embodiment of the present application, Figure 1-Figure 3As shown, an exoskeleton support layer 1 is arranged on the outer surface of the kneepad, and the exoskeleton support layer 1 is composed of polyurethane, which is also known as polyurethane and has a certain hardness and high wear resistance. The exoskeleton support layer 1 is polyurethane particles bonded to the kneepad by hot pressing. The exoskeleton support layer 1 is composed of a plurality of strips of polyurethane along the exoskeleton support layer 1, and each strip is close to each other but not connected, and runs through the upper cuff 10, the middle part 20 of the kneepad, and the lower cuff 30 of the kneepad. The exoskeleton support layer 1 is symmetrical about the longitudinal axis of the kneepad, and the center of symmetry is located at the position of the patella when the user is in normal use. The exoskeleton support layer protrudes from the outer surface of the kneepad in a direction perpendicular to the outer surface of the kneepad, and all are triangular columnar protrusions.

[0046] like Figure 4 As shown, the exoskeleton support layer 1 is divided into two parts, A and B, which are mirror-symmetrical. The overall structure of the exoskeleton support layer 1 is adapted to the shape of the knee or elbow of the user during normal use. There are a large number of blank areas between the two parts A and B, which are the areas where the patella or elbow is located during normal use. The periphery of the blank areas in the middle of the two parts A and B is surrounded by a polyurethane exoskeleton composed of long strips, short strips, and arcs. The exoskeletons in the two areas A and B extend upward and downward from the blank area in the middle, respectively, extending upward to form a short strip exoskeleton and a short strip exoskeleton with a pointed portion, and extending downward to form two long strip exoskeletons and another long strip exoskeleton and a short strip exoskeleton with a pointed portion. The parts extending upward from the two areas A and B are adapted to the shape of the femur or humerus of the user during normal use; the parts extending downward from the two areas A and B are adapted to the shape of the tibia or ulna of the user during normal use.

[0047] The polyurethane exoskeleton of the exoskeleton support layer 1 has a variety of shapes, such as basic three-dimensional shapes such as triangular prisms, rectangular parallelepipeds, triangular pyramids, etc., or other three-dimensional shapes composed of basic three-dimensional shapes such as triangular prisms, rectangular parallelepipeds, triangular pyramids, etc. The above three-dimensional shapes can be combined and used at will without affecting the normal wearing of the user or when the exoskeleton support layer 1 is subjected to force in an emergency situation and does not affect the normal deformation.

[0048] In a specific embodiment of the present application, using Figure 1 The exoskeleton knee brace shown in the figure has a pad disposed between the inner and outer surfaces of the knee brace, and the inner surface of the pad is designed to be an arc surface adapted to the elbow or knee of the human body. The fabric of the knee brace does not affect the user's ability to find the position where the impact-resistant gasket best fits the patella, and the knee brace can be easily put on and fixed.

[0049] In a specific embodiment of the present application, a massage pad is provided between the inner surface and the outer surface of the knee brace. Figure 7-9 As shown, it is composed of the massage component 1 and the first pad component 2, wherein the massage component 1 is compounded on the first surface of the first pad component 2, and the first surface of the first pad component 2 is adapted to the structure of the massage component 1, providing a compound fixed position. The massage component 1 protrudes from the first surface along the positive direction of the X-axis, the first surface has an arc-shaped edge, and the second surface is the back of the first surface and has no protruding structure; the second surface is attached to the skin at the knee, and the massage component 1 compounded on the first surface applies pressure to the knee joint and / or nearby muscle groups at the attached position.

[0050] Specifically, the massage pad also includes a second pad component 3, such as Fig. 9 As shown, the second pad assembly 3 has a third surface and a fourth surface. The third surface is convex along the positive direction of the X-axis and has an arc-shaped edge. The fourth surface is the back side of the third surface and has no convex structure.

[0051] When the massage pad is in use, the second surface of the first pad component 2 and the fourth surface of the second pad component 3 fit the human body, and the first surface and the third surface are on the side away from the human body. Specifically, when the massage pad of the present application is in use, the massage pad is located at the patella of the knee, wherein the first surface of the first pad component 2 combined with the massage component 1 fits the lower edge of the patella along its upper arc edge, such as Figure 7-Figure 8 The third surface of the second pad assembly 3 is attached to the upper edge of the patella along its lower arc edge, as shown in FIG. Fig. 9 As shown, the structure is symmetrical with that of the first surface of the first pad component 2 along its upper arc edge being attached to the lower edge of the patella, thereby achieving the fixation of the massage pad at the knee joint.

[0052] In a specific embodiment of the present application, the massage component 1 is an elastic massage component, the first pad component 2 is an elastic first pad component, and the second pad component 3 is an elastic second pad component. The massage component 1 is made of an elastic material, such as a silicone-based material, and further a 30° soft and hard silicone material. The first pad component 2 and the second pad component 3 can both be made of an elastic material, such as a silicone-based material, and further a 15° soft and hard silicone material. Therefore, during the knee movement, the massage component 1 will not affect the normal range of motion of the knee joint. Specifically, when the knee joint is flexed, the first surface and the second surface of the first pad component 2 compounded with it are stretched to both sides, and the third surface and the fourth surface of the second pad component 3 are also stretched to both sides, all of which produce elastic deformation and do not hinder the application of force to the knee joint; when the knee joint is extended, the first surface and the second surface of the first pad component 2 compounded with it are tightened toward the middle, and the third surface and the fourth surface of the second pad component 3 are also tightened toward the middle, all of which produce elastic deformation and do not hinder the application of force to the knee joint; when the knee joint returns to the fixed position before exercise, the massage component 1, the first pad component 2 and the second pad component 3 restore their original shapes.

[0053] In a specific embodiment of the present application, the number of support unit groups in the massage component 1 can be 2 groups, 3 groups, 4 groups, 5 groups, etc., and the number of support unit groups can be determined according to actual needs. In some embodiments, the massage component 1 includes two groups of support units, each group of support units includes one or more support parts 4, and the connecting unit includes a first connecting strip 5 and a second connecting strip 6. In the same group of support units, adjacent support parts 4 are connected by the first connecting strip 5; the two groups of support units are connected by the second connecting strip 6.

[0054] like Figure 7-Figure 8 As shown, the massage assembly 1 is composed of two groups of support units and connecting units, each group of the support units includes two support parts 4, and the connecting unit includes a first connecting strip 5 and a second connecting strip 6. The two adjacent support parts 4 are connected by the first connecting strip 5 to form a group of the support units, and the two adjacent groups of the support units are connected by the second connecting strip 6.

[0055] In a specific embodiment of the present application, the two ends of the second connecting strip 6 are respectively connected to the support parts 4 in different groups of the support units, and the length of the second connecting strip 6 is greater than the length of the first connecting strip 5, and the projection on the first pad assembly 2 is in the shape of an arc or a straight line. Due to the large range of motion of the knee joint, the current group of support units is not enough to cover the space range on both sides of the knee joint, and the two adjacent support parts 4 connected by the first connecting strip 5 are symmetrically distributed on both sides below the patella. Since the first connecting strip 5 is shorter, the support parts on both sides will hinder the movement of the knee joint; in addition, considering the need to provide the massage assembly 1 with a certain elastic deformation ability to meet the normal movement requirements of the knee joint, the two groups of support units are connected by the second connecting strip 6 whose length is greater than the first connecting strip 5, and the second connecting strip 6 is designed to be in the shape of an arc or a straight line, so that the second connecting strip 6 can cross the middle part of the patella and does not hinder the movement of the knee joint. Specifically, the two ends of the second connecting strip 6 are respectively connected to one of the support parts 4 in each group of the support units, and the second connecting strip 6 and the first connecting strip 5 are respectively axially symmetrically distributed relative to the support unit and the support part 4, such as Figure 8 Therefore, when the user wears the massage component 1, the two groups of support units are symmetrically distributed on both sides below the patella, covering the entire lower edge of the knee joint; in addition, when the user moves, it is the second connecting strip 6 that produces a larger elastic deformation, and in the support unit, the support part 4 is connected by the shorter first connecting strip 5, so the support unit structure is stable and not prone to large deformation. The massage component 1 can provide stable pressurized massage and ensure that the movement of the knee joint is not affected.

[0056] The projection of the support portion 4 on the first pad assembly 2 can be one of a circular ring, an elliptical ring, a rectangular frame, a triangular frame, a regular pentagonal frame and a regular hexagonal frame. Preferably, the projection of the support portion 4 on the first pad assembly 2 is a circular ring; the support portion 4, the first connecting strip 5 and the second connecting strip 6 have ridges on the first surface and the second surface of the first pad assembly 2, and together constitute the massage assembly 1, so the massage assembly 1 as a whole has ridges protruding from the first surface of the first pad assembly. When the massage pad is fixed to the patella of the knee, the massage assembly 1 indirectly contacts the skin at the knee through the first pad assembly 2, and relies on the support portion 4 with ridges and the first connecting strip 5 to apply pressure to the knee joints on both sides and the muscle groups nearby, and the second connecting strip 6 with ridges applies pressure to the lower edge of the patella, thereby jointly achieving pressurized massage. The circular ring, elliptical ring, rectangular frame, triangular frame, regular pentagonal frame and regular hexagonal frame structures of the support part 4 can all apply stable pressure. Preferably, the circular ring structure of the support part 4 can apply the most stable pressure, and the user can also change the structure of the support part 4 according to tactile feedback and personal wishes.

[0057] The first pad assembly 2 includes a massage pad body 7 and connecting ends 8 at both ends of the massage pad body, and a connecting piece 9 is provided between the massage pad body 7 and the connecting ends 8. On the first surface of the first pad assembly 2, the massage pad body 7 and the connecting ends 8 both have surfaces that are convex along the positive direction of the X-axis and have arc-shaped edges, and the surface of the connecting piece 9 is concave in the surfaces of the massage pad body 7 and the connecting ends 8. Figure 7-Figure 8 As shown. Specifically, the first pad component 2 has a first surface and a second surface, wherein the first surface is composed of a massage pad body 7, two connecting ends 8 and two connecting pieces 9, the massage pad body 7 is the main part of the first surface, and its surface is protruding along the positive direction of the X axis, and is compounded with the second connecting strip 6 of the massage component 1 and the support part 4 connected to the two ends of the second connecting strip 6; the connecting end 8 is located at both ends of the massage pad body 7, and its surface is also protruding along the positive direction of the X axis, and is compounded with the remaining support parts 4 of the massage component 1, and the remaining support parts 4 are connected to the support part 4 connected to the second connecting strip 6 through the first connecting strip 5; the connecting piece 9 is located between the massage pad body 7 and the connecting end 8, one end of which is compounded with the two end edges of the massage pad body 7, and the other end is embedded in the connecting end 8, providing connection and fixation for the two ends of the massage pad body 7 with the connecting end 8, and because its structure is concave relative to the massage pad body 7 and the connecting end 8, it does not contact and / or compound with any structure of the massage component 1.

[0058] During the compounding process of the massage component 1 and the first pad component 2, the surface area of ​​the first surface of the first pad component 2 is adapted to compound fixation with the massage component 1, and is greater than the surface area of ​​the support unit and the connection unit of the massage component 1. Specifically, the compounding part of the first surface and the massage component 1 includes: the contact part between the massage pad body 7 and the second connecting strip 6 and the support part 5, and the contact part between the connecting end 8 and the support part 4. The first pad component 2 and the massage component 1 are completely fitted by compounding at the contact part, so that when the first pad component 2 and the massage component 1 are affected by the intense movement of the knee joint and produce elastic deformations of different sizes and directions, they will not be separated due to tearing of elastic force, thereby avoiding partial or complete separation of the structure of the massage pad from the fixed position of the knee joint. The first pad component 2 and the massage component 1 can be detachably connected or integrally formed.

[0059] In a specific embodiment of the present application, using Figure 1 The exoskeleton kneepad shown in the figure has an elastic band arranged inside the hem 11 of the kneepad, and the elastic band has an appropriate contraction strength. When the user wears the exoskeleton kneepad, the user can directly put the exoskeleton kneepad on the relevant joints such as the knee and elbow, and the hem 11 is appropriately circumscribed and contracted, and the other edge of the kneepad is closely attached to the user's tibia or ulna. When the user wears the exoskeleton kneepad normally, the blank area in the middle of the exoskeleton support layer 1 corresponds to the part where the inner surface of the kneepad fits the user's knee or elbow. The exoskeleton kneepad ensures that the lower edge of the joint fits the lower part of the gasket, so that when the joint is normally stressed or impacted by external force, the inner surface of the kneepad fits the knee or elbow, and the exoskeleton support layer 1 is slightly deformed by force. While the exoskeleton support layer 1 is deformed by force, the relevant parts of the user are relieved of force. At the same time, the exoskeleton support layer 1 has a three-dimensional effect, and the higher hardness can produce a certain "isolation" effect between the relevant parts of the user such as the knee or elbow and the external force point / surface, so as to avoid the strong external force from causing serious damage to the relevant parts of the user such as the knee or elbow.

[0060] In a specific embodiment of the present application, using Figure 1The exoskeleton knee pad shown can be used in conjunction with any straps. When wearing it, the user can directly put the exoskeleton knee pad on the knee, elbow and other relevant joints, and adjust the tightness of the exoskeleton knee pad on the relevant parts of the user by shortening the length of the straps to ensure that the edges of the two ends of the knee pad are close to the user's tibia, femur or ulna, humerus. When normally worn, the middle blank area of ​​the exoskeleton support layer 1 corresponds to the part where the inner surface of the knee pad fits the user's knee or elbow. The exoskeleton knee pad ensures that the lower edge of the joint fits the lower part of the gasket. When the joint is normally stressed or impacted by external force, the inner surface of the knee pad fits the knee or elbow, and the exoskeleton support layer 1 is slightly deformed under stress. While the exoskeleton support layer 1 is deformed under stress, the stress on the relevant parts of the user is relieved. At the same time, the exoskeleton support layer 1 has a three-dimensional effect, and its high hardness can produce a certain "isolation" effect between the user's knees, elbows and other relevant parts and the external force points / surfaces, thereby preventing strong external forces from causing serious damage to the user's knees, elbows and other relevant parts.

[0061] Although the embodiments of the present application are described above in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, the present application is not limited to the above specific embodiments and application fields, and the above specific embodiments are merely illustrative and instructive, rather than restrictive. A person of ordinary skill in the art can also make many forms under the guidance of this specification and without departing from the scope of protection of the claims of the present application, all of which belong to the protection of the present application.
