[0036] Reference Figure 1-2 This embodiment relates to a type of sock, comprising:
[0037] The first sock fabric 1 includes a sock back 11 and a first sock toe 12 connected to the sock back 11 near the user's toes and turned downwards. The sock back 11 is the part of the sock that covers the user's instep. The first sock toe 12 is the front end of the sock back 11, located near the toes. The first sock toe 12 is turned downwards from the sock back 11 to form the front end of the sock.
[0038] The second sock fabric 2 includes a sock sole 21 and a second sock toe 22 connected to the sock sole 21. The second sock toe 22 is flipped upward from the sock sole 21 near the user's toes and extends to the first sock toe 12. The sock sole 21 is the bottom of the sock used to cover the user's foot and bear the pressure from the ground and the foot. The second sock toe 22 is connected to the sock sole 21, located at the bottom of the toes, and flipped upward to any part of the first sock toe 12.
[0039] In one embodiment, the back of the sock 11 is made of a foot-feel mesh fabric.
[0040] The first sock toe 12 and the second sock toe 22 are bonded together by adhesive 4. The bonding method can be flexibly selected according to the actual situation, and may specifically include the following two situations:
[0041] In this embodiment, the first sock toe 12 is located on the outer layer of the sock, directly contacting the user's toes, and is bonded to the second sock toe 22 by adhesive 4. At this time, the second sock toe 22 is located inside the first sock toe 12, forming a closed structure at the front end of the sock.
[0042] In another embodiment, the second sock toe 22 is located on the outer layer of the sock, directly wrapping around the first sock toe 12, and is bonded to the first sock toe 12 by adhesive 4. In this case, the first sock toe 12 is located inside the second sock toe 22, forming the same connection structure for the toe area.
[0043] It should be noted that the adhesive 4 can be applied to the contact surface between the first sock toe 12 and the second sock toe 22 by uniform coating or local coating, and the coating location can be the contact area between the first sock toe 12 and the second sock toe 22, and the coating area is mainly located in the toe part of the sock toe.
[0044] Preferably, the adhesive 4 is applied in a grid pattern on the contact surfaces of the first sock toe 12 and the second sock toe 22, that is, several parallel and intersecting coating lines are formed in the contact area to ensure that the adhesive 4 provides uniform adhesive strength at key contact points, while avoiding excessive adhesive 4 overflow or waste, effectively enhancing the adhesive effect in the contact area, and maintaining the breathability of the sock toe.
[0045] In this embodiment of the invention, the first sock toe 12 and the second sock toe 22 are bonded together with adhesive 4, which avoids the problem of local pressure on the toes caused by stitching in traditional designs. This effectively reduces friction and blisters caused by stitching during long-term wear and improves wearing comfort.
[0046] Meanwhile, after the first sock toe 12 and the second sock toe 22 are bonded together with adhesive 4, the toe area can be thickened to prevent the user's toes from tearing through and to improve durability.
[0047] In one embodiment, the adhesive 4 is a particulate film, and there are gaps between the particles of the particulate film.
[0048] It should be noted that the granular film is different from the regular smooth film. The granular film has certain gaps between the particles. These gaps can effectively improve breathability, so that while the toe of the sock is thickened, it can maintain good breathability and ensure that the wearer can still feel comfortable and dry when wearing it for a long time.
[0049] In the above embodiments, the back of the sock 11 and the first toe of the sock 12, and the sole of the sock 21 and the second toe of the sock 22 are not connected by a one-piece molding method, but are connected by a traditional fabric splicing or sewing method: the first toe of the sock 12 is connected to the front end of the back of the sock 11 by sewing or gluing, and the second toe of the sock 22 is connected to the part of the sole of the sock near the toes by sewing or gluing, so that each part is formed independently, and then the front end and bottom structure of the sock are formed by sewing or applying adhesive 4.
[0050] In one embodiment, the back of the sock 11 and the first toe of the sock 12 are integrally formed, and the sole of the sock 21 and the second toe of the sock 22 are integrally formed.
[0051] It should be noted that the one-piece molding can be achieved by knitting, hot pressing or other processes with the same effect. That is, the back of the sock 11 and the first toe of the sock 12 are formed by a unified fabric structure during the manufacturing process to form a seamless connection interface; the sole of the sock 21 and the second toe of the sock 22 are based on the same principle as above, so they will not be described again.
[0052] This embodiment uses a one-piece molding method to connect the sock back 11 with the first sock toe 12 and the sock sole 21 with the second sock toe 22. This effectively avoids the unevenness of seams and stitching lines that may exist in traditional splicing methods. By molding a uniform fabric structure, a seamless connection interface is formed, which improves the stability and integrity of the sock structure. In addition, one-piece molding can reduce friction and avoid local pressure or discomfort caused by stitching lines, thus enhancing the comfort of wearing the sock. Since there are no stitching lines, the appearance of the sock is simpler, and the overall structure is more beautiful and durable.
[0053] In one embodiment, the first toe cap 12 and the second toe cap 22 are provided with first stitches 5 on both sides. The first stitches 5 start from the toe tips of the first toe cap 12 and the second toe cap 22, extending along the side edges of the toe cap to the connection point between the toe cap and the back 11 or the sole 21. This stitch ensures a stronger connection on both sides of the toe cap, enhancing the overall structural stability of the sock and effectively preventing discomfort or slippage due to the toe cap loosening during wear. It should be noted that the stitching area can cover the entire edge of the toe cap, or only reinforce the key contact areas to achieve the required strength and comfort.
[0054] In one embodiment, the second sock toe 22 flips upward from one side of the sock sole 21 and extends to the connection point of the first sock toe 12 connected to the sock back 11. The second sock toe 22 starts from the sock sole 21, flips upward along the toe area, and extends until it contacts the first sock toe 12. The connection point is located at the front end of the sock structure, close to the toe area. The extension of the second sock toe 22 closely matches the connection between the first sock toe 12 and the sock back 11, ensuring the overall coverage and comfort of the sock.
[0055] In one embodiment, a second stitch 6 is provided at the connection between the back of the sock 11 and the first toe of the sock 12. The second stitch 6 is used to reinforce the structural stability of the first toe of the sock 12 and the second toe of the sock 22, enhance the durability of the sock, and prevent cracking or falling off due to pulling or friction during wear.
[0056] In one embodiment, the second seam 6 is a low-seam seam, and the second seam 6 is also filled with a granular adhesive film. The low-seam seam refers to a finer sewing process that effectively reduces the pressure of the seam on the foot, and the seam can adhere tightly to the sock body without standing up, thus avoiding friction with the user's skin and improving wearing comfort. The granular adhesive film fills the seam area of the low-seam seam and its surrounding area, further enhancing the anti-slip and sealing properties of the joint. The presence of the granular adhesive film improves the durability of the sock and prevents thread detachment or wear.
[0057] In one embodiment, the connection between the sock back 11 and the first sock toe 12 is located at the instep of the human foot, and the connection between the sock sole 21 and the second sock toe 22 is located at the bottom of the human toes, providing wrapping protection and support for the toes, ensuring that the sock can tightly cover the instep and sole, and enhancing comfort and stability.
[0058] In one embodiment, the lower edge of the sock back 11 and the edge of the sock sole 21 are sewn together by a third stitch 7. The third stitch 7 sews the two edge parts together to ensure the stability and durability of the sock structure and enhance the fit between the sock and the foot, preventing the sock sole 21 from shifting or deforming during wear, thereby improving the comfort and stability of wearing.
[0059] In one embodiment, the sock sole 21 is made of terry cloth to improve sweat absorption and keep the user's feet dry and comfortable. The fleece structure of the terry cloth can effectively absorb sweat from the soles of the feet, thereby preventing sweat buildup and ensuring that the wearer's feet remain dry during prolonged wear.
[0060] In another embodiment, the sock sole 21 is made of sandy cotton, a fabric with a micro-particle structure. In addition to its excellent sweat absorption properties, sandy cotton also has a certain anti-slip function. The micro-particle surface of sandy cotton can increase the friction with the sole of the foot, reduce slippage, provide a more stable fit, and further improve the comfort and safety of wearing it.
[0061] Furthermore, the sock sole 21 has a double-layer fabric sandwich design, and an air cushion 8 is provided in the sandwich between the heel and the instep of the sock sole 21. The periphery of the air cushion 8 is gradually thinned and inclined and pressed and connected to the sock body.
[0062] It should be noted that the sock sole 21 is made of double-layered fabric, with air cushions 8 respectively installed in the interlayer of the heel and instep of the sock sole 21. This allows for corresponding support of the user's heel and instep when wearing the sock, providing cushioning. Since the heel and instep are the main ground support parts when the user puts their shoes on, the air cushion 8 in this embodiment is more in line with human mechanics. The periphery of the air cushion 8 is tapered and pressed into the sock body, which reduces the thickness difference of the sole when the user wears the sock, making it more comfortable and preventing foot irritation. In summary, this improves the user's comfort.
[0063] In one embodiment of this utility model, combined with Figure 3-4 As shown, the air cushion 8 is a molded air cushion 8, and the thickness of the middle part of the molded air cushion 8 is 3mm.
[0064] It should be noted that, preferably, the air cushion 8 is a molded air cushion 8. The molded air cushion 8 has higher flatness and better connection with the sock body on the periphery. Preferably, the thickness of the middle part of the molded air cushion 8 is 3mm. Setting it to 3mm allows the air cushion 8 to have a supporting and cushioning effect without too much drop, making the foot feel more comfortable.
[0065] In one embodiment, combined with Figure 4As shown, the air cushion 8 located on the heel is shaped as a semi-circular arc 84 on the side away from the sole and the two sides connected to it. The side closer to the sole is shaped as a slanted cut 83 along the corresponding boundary line between the arch and the heel. The slanted cut 83 and the semi-circular arc 84 together form the air cushion 8. The above-mentioned air cushion 8 design is more in line with human biomechanics. When the human body is standing, the arch of the foot is basically not under pressure, and the arch needs a certain gap to keep the muscles relaxed and avoid flat feet. Therefore, the air cushion 8 is placed on the pressure position of the human heel, which not only provides support and cushioning but also does not affect the normal shape of the arch.
[0066] In one embodiment of this utility model, combined with Figure 4 As shown, the air cushion 8 located on the sole of the foot, away from the heel, and its two connected sides are set as inclined arcs 81. The side closer to the heel has a recessed opening 82 along the corresponding boundary line between the arch and the sole. The air cushion 8 located on the ball of the foot, away from the heel, and its two connected sides are set as inclined arcs 81, that is, along the boundary line between the user's sole and toes, so as not to affect the normal landing of the user's toes. The side closer to the heel has a recessed opening 82 along the corresponding boundary line between the arch and the sole. The design of the recessed opening 82 clearly defines the arch position. As shown above, it provides support and cushioning without affecting the normal shape of the arch.
[0067] In one embodiment, the sock back 11 is also provided with a sock opening 3. An anti-slip patch 31 is provided on the side of the sock opening 3 near the user's heel to prevent slipping. The anti-slip structure is anti-slip silicone, which is rounded rectangular in shape, so that it can better adhere to the sock body, avoid friction inside the shoe and improve the anti-slip effect of the sock opening 3.
[0068] In one embodiment, the sock cuff 3 is provided with a loop structure 32 made of elastic material. The loop structure 32 is wrapped around the sock cuff 3 and passes through the outer periphery of the anti-slip patch 31. The outer surface of the loop structure 32 is also attached with a layer of fabric. The loop structure 32 is made of elastic composite fabric, which has good tensile and resilience properties, and can improve the elasticity of the sock cuff 3, so that the sock cuff 3 can tighten and firmly adhere to the user's ankle during wearing, further preventing the sock from slipping down.
[0069] The outer periphery of the anti-slip structure is also wrapped with a loop structure 32 to enhance the wrapping and anti-slip properties of the heel area, ensuring that the sock cuff 3 can fit securely during the user's wearing process, providing better comfort and stability.
[0070] The above is only used to illustrate the technical solution of this utility model and not to limit it. Any other modifications or equivalent substitutions made by those skilled in the art to the technical solution of this utility model, as long as they do not depart from the spirit and scope of the technical solution of this utility model, should be covered within the scope of the claims of this utility model.
