Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of sock technology, and in particular to a sock that prevents the arch of the foot from sagging. Background Technology
[0002] The elasticity of the arch of the foot cushions the rhythm between the downward transmission of body weight and the rebound force from the ground, while also protecting the blood vessels and nerves in the sole of the foot from compression. Maintaining the shape of the arch relies on the shape of the bones themselves, and the strength of the ligaments and muscles. The bones that make up the arch and the ligaments and muscles that support them are closely related and mutually influential. Muscles are the primary line of defense in maintaining the arch. The muscles that truly play a decisive role in maintaining the arch include: tibialis anterior, tibialis posterior, peroneus longus and peroneus brevis, and gastrocnemius. Muscle fatigue after long-distance running can lead to a decline in the arch.
[0003] Currently, most functional socks focus on materials, knitting methods, and thickness in different areas, using materials to wick away moisture and deodorize; knitting methods to improve breathability; and thickness to enhance cushioning. However, these functions primarily improve comfort and health. Few products address improving running ability and athletic performance by preventing medial arch collapse. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a sock that prevents the arch of the foot from sagging, thereby solving the problem that socks are not effective at preventing the arch of the foot from sagging.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model discloses a sock for preventing arch collapse, comprising: a sock body, an arch support, a fixing member, and a muscle massage member; the sock body is a long sock, the fixing member is disposed at the top of the sock body; the arch support extends along the length of the sock body, one end of the arch support is connected to the fixing member, and the other end is disposed on the sock body corresponding to the arch of the human foot; the muscle massage member is wrapped around the sock body corresponding to the lower leg.
[0006] Preferably, the elastic modulus of the fastener is greater than that of the muscle massage component, which in turn is greater than that of the arch support component, which is greater than that of the sock body.
[0007] Preferably, the arch support is composed of several yarn groups, which are woven integrally with the sock body.
[0008] Preferably, the arch support is composed of several silicone threads, which are adhered to the sock body.
[0009] Preferably, the diameter of the yarn group / silicone thread gradually decreases along both sides of the sock body, and the spacing between two adjacent yarn groups / silicone threads gradually increases along both sides of the sock body. The maximum diameter of the yarn group / silicone thread is 2-5mm, the minimum diameter of the yarn group / silicone thread is 0.5-1.5mm, and the spacing between the yarn group / silicone thread is 1.5mm-4mm.
[0010] Preferably, the fastener is an elastic band, which is wrapped around the opening of the sock body, and the width of the elastic band is 3-5cm.
[0011] Preferably, the muscle massage component is a yarn group, which is integrally woven with the sock body. One end of the yarn group extends to the fixing component, and the other end extends to the sock body at the position corresponding to the inner side of the human foot arch.
[0012] Preferably, the muscle massage element is a silicone thread, which is adhered to the sock body. One end of the silicone thread extends to the fixing element, and the other end extends to the sock body at the position corresponding to the inner side of the human foot arch.
[0013] Preferably, the diameter of the muscle massage element is 1-2 mm.
[0014] Preferably, the arch support and the muscle massage component are separate from or intertwined.
[0015] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0020] Explanation of symbols for main components:
[0021] 100. Sock body; 110. Fastener; 120. Arch support; 130. Muscle massager. Detailed Implementation
[0022] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.
[0023] like Figures 1-3 As shown, this utility model provides a sock to prevent arch collapse, comprising: a sock body 100, an arch support 120, a fixing member 110, and a muscle massage member 130; the sock body 100 is a long sock, and the fixing member 110 is disposed at the opening of the sock body 100; the arch support 120 extends along the length of the sock body 100, one end of the arch support 120 is connected to the fixing member 110, and the other end is disposed on the sock body 100 corresponding to the arch of the human foot; the muscle massage member 130 is wrapped around the sock body 100 corresponding to the lower leg of the human body.
[0024] In this embodiment, when the socks are worn, the retainer 110 above the knee joint is positioned by the contractile material, and the arch support 120 and muscle massager 130 provide traction to the medial longitudinal arch, protecting its height. When factors such as muscle fatigue cause the medial longitudinal arch to sag, the arch support 120 and muscle massager 130 passively lengthen, creating an upward pull to help slow the sag. Furthermore, the built-in, surrounding muscle massager 130 also massages the calf muscles, reducing sports injuries and improving athletic performance.
[0025] The elastic modulus of the fastener 110 is greater than that of the muscle massager 130, which is greater than that of the arch support 120, which is greater than that of the sock body 100. In other words, the sock body 100 is the easiest to stretch, while the fastener 110 is the hardest to stretch, thus preventing the sock from slipping down.
[0026] The opening of the sock body 100 is 8-10cm above the knee. The fastener 110 is an elastic band, wrapped around the opening of the sock body, with a width of 3-5cm. In this embodiment, the fastener 110 primarily functions to tighten the opening of the sock body 100, fixing its position and preventing it from sagging. Its elasticity ensures the opening doesn't drop while avoiding discomfort caused by compression or contraction of the thigh.
[0027] In this embodiment, the top end of the arch support 120 is woven together with the fixing member 110, and the bottom end of the arch support 120 is located on the inner side of the arch. The arch support 120 is an elastic band, and it is configured to be composed of several yarn groups, which are woven integrally with the sock body 100. The diameter of the yarn groups gradually decreases along both sides of the sock body 100, and the spacing between two adjacent yarn groups gradually increases along both sides of the sock body 100. The maximum diameter of the yarn groups is 2-5mm, the minimum diameter is 0.5-1.5mm, and the spacing between the yarn groups is 1.5mm-4mm, making the strength of the middle yarn groups greater than that of the side yarn groups. With the above design, the arch support 120 can better pull the inner arch of the foot, effectively preventing the arch from sagging due to muscle fatigue.
[0028] The muscle massage component 130 is a yarn bundle woven integrally with the sock body 100. One end of the yarn bundle extends to the fixing component 110, and the other end extends to the position on the sock body 100 corresponding to the inner side of the human foot arch. The diameter of the muscle massage component (130) is 1-2 mm. In this embodiment, the lower end of the muscle massage component 130 is combined with the middle of the inner side of the foot arch, and its upper end is woven together with the sock opening fixing component 110. The muscle massage component 130 is arranged around the calf, and its elastic pressure is weaker than that of the arch support component 120. During running, the calf muscles contract and relax rhythmically, causing the muscle massage component 130 to stretch and contract, which plays the following roles: a. The rhythmic stretching and contraction of the muscle massage component 130 massages the calf muscles, helping to reduce lactic acid buildup in the calf muscles and reduce calf muscle fatigue; b. The lower end of the muscle massage component 130 exerts an upward traction force on the inner arch of the foot, preventing the arch from sagging due to muscle fatigue.
[0029] The arch support component 120 and the muscle massage component 130 are either separate from each other or interlocked. In this embodiment, both the arch support component 120 and the muscle massage component 130 are woven into the sock body 100 as a whole, and the arch support component 120 and the muscle massage component 130 are interlocked.
[0030] Example 2
[0031] The main difference between this embodiment and Embodiment 1 is that the arch support component 120 is composed of several silicone threads, which are adhered to the sock body 100. The diameter of the silicone threads gradually decreases along both sides of the sock body 100, and the spacing between adjacent silicone threads gradually increases along both sides of the sock body 100. The maximum diameter of the silicone threads is 2-5 mm, the minimum diameter is 0.5-1.5 mm, and the spacing between the silicone threads is 1.5 mm-4 mm. The silicone threads have excellent elasticity and abrasion resistance, which allows the sock to maintain good shape and elasticity even after prolonged wear or frequent activity.
[0032] Example 3
[0033] The main difference between this embodiment and Embodiment 1 is that the muscle massage component 130 is a silicone thread. The silicone thread is adhered to the sock body 100, with one end extending to the fixing component 110 and the other end extending to the position on the sock body 100 corresponding to the inner arch of the foot. The silicone thread has excellent elasticity, meaning that socks using silicone threads as elastic bands can closely conform to the wearer's legs, providing a comfortable wearing experience. The silicone thread also has excellent abrasion resistance, allowing the socks to maintain good shape and elasticity even after prolonged wear or frequent activity.
[0034] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any changes or substitutions that can be easily conceived by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
