Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model specifically relates to the technical field of socks, and in particular to an ankle protection sock. Background Art

[0002] Common socks are made of a single loop, with the body and sole of the same thickness. When worn, the socks cover the inside of the shoe, providing warmth. The top of the sock, worn over tights, also provides warmth. However, the exposed instep and ankle joints offer poor thermal insulation. In these situations, even with socks, the exposed instep and ankle joints still lack warmth, a common complaint.

[0003] In order to cope with this situation and for the advancement of technology and improvement of industry level, the present application proposes a new sock structure. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of the utility model is to solve the shortcomings of the prior art and to provide an ankle protection sock.

[0005] In order to achieve the above purpose, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions:

[0006] The invention discloses an ankle protection sock, comprising a sock body, which is divided into a sock tube area, an ankle area and a sole area. The sock tube area is woven with a plurality of elastic strips, the ankle area is woven with an ankle protection layer, the ankle area is provided with ankle protection strips and an ankle surface layer.

[0007] Furthermore, the ankle support strip is a textile strip or an external soft strip.

[0008] Furthermore, the ankle surface layer is a textile layer or an external soft layer.

[0009] Furthermore, the sole area includes a toe area and a heel area, and a buffer layer is provided on the heel area.

[0010] Furthermore, the sole area includes a sole area and a top area, and an anti-slip layer is provided at the bottom of the sole area.

[0011] Furthermore, a locking area is provided between the sole area and the instep area.

[0012] The beneficial effects of the utility model are:

[0013] 1. The elastic strips make the socks fit closely to the feet when worn, avoiding bagginess and letting in wind.

[0014] 2. The ankle protection layer makes the ankle of the socks thicker, forming a thickened layer, which can protect against wind and cold from the outside when worn.

[0015] 3. The ankle guard can prevent the ankle tendons from being rubbed, and the ankle surface layer can prevent the ankle surface from being rubbed, thereby protecting the ankle.

[0016] 4. The locking zone effectively prevents hair from plucking. In existing technology, hair plucking occurs at the junction of different colors. The two contrasting color zones are connected by two parallel knitting needles. Cutting and feeding the new color yarn on both sides leave two yarn ends, leaving a gap in the middle where the main yarn cannot be fed. Therefore, the hair ends can plucking out during wearing. In this solution, a curved loop is left at the edge of each of the sole and instep areas during machine manufacturing. These two loops are then knotted together to achieve locking, avoiding the problems encountered in existing technology. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0023] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments.

[0024] Reference Figure 1-5 , an ankle support sock, comprising a sock body, the sock body being made of one or more common materials such as long-staple cotton, polyester, nylon, polyester fiber, spandex, etc.;

[0025] It should be noted that the sock body in this solution is divided into a sock shaft area 1, an ankle area 2 and a sole area 3;

[0026] The sock region 1 is woven with a plurality of elastic strips 5. The elastic strips 5 are woven on the sock region 1 using a relatively elastic thread, such as spandex, which has good elasticity and can fit the ankle tightly when worn, preventing wind from entering and causing frostbite to the ankle.

[0027] An ankle protection layer 6 is woven on the ankle region 2. The ankle protection layer 6 is also woven on the ankle region 2 using a thread with good elasticity, such as spandex yarn, and surrounds the ankle region 2 to form a thickened layer. When worn, it can protect against wind and cold from the outside. In addition, the elasticity of the ankle protection layer 6 can make the ankle region 2 fit tightly around the ankle bone, making the sock body fit closely to the skin, avoiding being loose and thus letting in wind.

[0028] An ankle protection strip 201 is provided on the ankle region 2 of the sock. In this embodiment, the ankle protection strip 201 can be a textile strip or an external soft strip.

[0029] When the ankle protection strip 201 is a textile strip, wear-resistant silk thread can be used to weave a block layer on the outside of the ankle protection layer 6 to prevent friction on the ankle tendons;

[0030] When the ankle protection strip 201 is an external soft strip, a silicone pad can be bonded to the outside of the ankle protection layer 6 to prevent friction with the ankle tendons;

[0031] An ankle surface layer 202 is also provided on the ankle region 2 of the sock. In this embodiment, the ankle surface layer 202 is a textile layer or an external soft layer.

[0032] When the ankle surface layer 202 is a textile layer, wear-resistant silk thread can be used to weave a block layer at the connection between the ankle protection layer 6 and the foot surface area 303 to prevent friction on the ankle surface;

[0033] When the ankle surface layer 202 is an external soft layer, a silicone pad can be bonded at the connection between the ankle protection layer 6 and the foot surface area 303 to prevent friction on the ankle surface;

[0034] The sole area 3 includes a toe area 302 and a heel area 301. A cushioning layer is bonded to the heel area 301. In this embodiment, the cushioning layer is specifically a silicone cushion, thereby playing a cushioning role.

[0035] The sole area 3 includes a sole area 304 and an instep area 303. In this embodiment, the sole area 304 and the instep area 303 can be woven with different colored threads to form a contrasting color area, thereby enhancing the beauty of the socks.

[0036] A locking area 7 is provided between the sole area 304 and the instep area 303. Specifically in this solution, when the machine is manufactured, a curved ring is left at the edge of each of the sole area 304 and the instep area 303, and the two curved rings are knotted and fixed to each other to complete the locking.

[0037] The bottom of the sole area 304 is provided with an anti-skid layer 4, which is in the shape of strips or blocks and can increase the friction between the socks and the shoes. The anti-skid layer 4 can be made of nylon, polyester or other silk threads.

[0038] The working principle of this embodiment is as follows: when in use, the elastic strip 5 makes the socks fit tightly to the feet when worn, avoiding being loose and thus letting in wind; the ankle protection layer 6 makes the ankle of the socks thicker, forming a thickened layer, which can protect against wind and cold from the outside when worn; and the ankle protection strip 201 can prevent the ankle tendons from being rubbed, and the ankle surface layer 202 can prevent the ankle surface from being rubbed, thereby protecting the ankle.

[0039] The above is only a preferred specific implementation method of the present invention, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited to this. Any technician familiar with the technical field within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention can make equivalent replacements or changes based on the technical solution and utility model concept of the present invention, which should be covered by the protection scope of the present invention.
