Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of sports protective gear technology, and in particular to a silicone shock-absorbing pressure sports protective gear. Background Technology

[0002] Knee braces are items used to protect people's knees, providing protection during sports activities, warmth, and joint care. They are widely used in modern sports. The knee is an extremely important part of the body during sports, but it is also a relatively fragile and easily injured part. It is also a part that is extremely painful when injured and recovers slowly. Some people even experience dull pain on rainy or cloudy days. Knee braces made of thick felt material, which can be purchased in almost all sporting goods stores, can reduce and prevent injuries to a certain extent. They can also provide warmth in winter and are inexpensive.

[0003] Patent publication number CN220712981U discloses an anti-slip pressure knee brace, relating to the field of sports protective gear technology. It includes a knee brace body, with first fixing straps near the top and bottom of the outer periphery of the knee brace body. A connecting strap is provided on the outer periphery of the knee brace body and to the right of the first fixing straps. A first hook-and-loop fastener burr surface is provided on the outer periphery of the knee brace body and to the left of the first fixing straps. A first hook-and-loop fastening surface is provided on the front of the first hook-and-loop fastener burr surface and at the bottom left of the connecting strap. A second hook-and-loop fastener burr surface is provided on the outer periphery of the knee brace body near the right side and below the connecting strap. Two second hook-and-loop fastening surfaces are provided on the front of the second hook-and-loop fastening surfaces. Pressure straps are provided on both sides of the second hook-and-loop fastening surfaces. This design enables the pressure knee brace to effectively prevent slippage, thereby providing stable and effective protection for the knee.

[0004] While current anti-slip and pressure-enhancing knee braces achieve basic anti-slip functions through air cushions and anti-slip pads, the knee joint is susceptible to lateral impact during strenuous exercise, and the rubber air cushions in existing structures only have the function of buffering vertical pressure. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing a silicone shock-absorbing pressure-enhancing sports protective gear.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a silicone shock-absorbing pressure sports bra, comprising a knee brace body, wherein multiple silicone strips arranged in an equidistant ring array are fixedly connected to the inner side of the knee brace body, multiple metal strips are covered inside the knee brace body, and a buffer bag is fixedly attached to the outside of the multiple metal strips, a through hole is opened at the knee of the knee brace body, two first elastic fixing straps that are mirror-symmetrically arranged on the outside of the knee brace body are fixedly connected, a second elastic fixing strap is fixedly connected to the middle of the knee brace body, and a pressure strap is fixedly connected to the outside of the knee brace body.

[0007] As a further description of the above technical solution: the silicone strip passes through multiple equidistantly distributed first ventilation holes, the inner side of the knee brace body is provided with a quick-drying layer, the silicone strip is fixed and connected in the quick-drying layer, and the quick-drying layer passes through multiple second ventilation holes; by setting a quick-drying layer, and setting first ventilation holes on the silicone strip, and setting second ventilation holes in the quick-drying layer, the breathability of the knee brace body is improved.

[0008] As a further description of the above technical solution: the cushioning bag is a rubber bag filled with a non-Newtonian fluid, and the outside of the cushioning bag has multiple third ventilation holes that are not connected to the inside; by filling the cushioning bag with a non-Newtonian fluid, it plays a role in cushioning the impact on the outside of the knee brace.

[0009] As a further description of the above technical solution: the outer edge of the through hole is provided with an annular air cushion, the annular air cushion is fixedly connected to the knee brace body, and a silicone sheet is fixedly connected to the outside of the annular air cushion. The silicone sheet passes through multiple fourth ventilation holes, and the thickness of the silicone sheet is equal to the thickness of the silicone strip. By setting the annular air cushion and the silicone sheet, the knee is protected.

[0010] As a further description of the above technical solution: a breathable sponge is provided between the knee brace body and the quick-drying layer; by providing a breathable sponge, the breathability of the knee brace body is ensured, while the softness and comfort of the knee brace body when worn are improved.

[0011] As a further description of the above technical solution: the knee brace body is made of interwoven high-elasticity yarns; by improving the elasticity of the knee brace body, the breathability of the knee brace body is improved.

[0012] As a further description of the above technical solution: the end of the first elastic fixing band is sewn with a first Velcro closure, the needle side of the first Velcro closure is sewn to the end of the first elastic fixing band, and the rough side is sewn to the outside of the knee brace body. The connection method between the second elastic fixing band and the knee brace body is the same as the connection method between the first elastic fixing band and the knee brace body, and the second elastic fixing band is wrapped around the outside of the knee brace body in a cross pattern. Multiple elastic fixing bands are connected by multiple Velcro closures to adjust the tightness of the elastic fixing bands.

[0013] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0014] Compared with existing technologies, this silicone shock-absorbing pressure sports brace, by incorporating silicone strips, metal strips, and a cushioning bag filled with non-Newtonian fluid within the knee brace body, effectively cushions the impact received by the external body of the knee brace, thus improving its protective effect. The multiple ventilation holes and quick-drying layer enhance the breathability of the knee brace and improve wearing comfort. At the same time, while improving the knee brace's impact resistance, the silicone strips also increase the gap between the knee brace and the user's leg, thereby improving the knee brace's heat dissipation.
