Abstract
Description
Electronic socks with visually readable and healthy limb protection digital display Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to a pair of electronic socks that are used as health limb protectors and have an optical display screen. Background Art
[0002] The origin of socks: In ancient times, socks were called "foot clothes" or "foot bags". After thousands of years of evolution, they developed into the modern form of socks. In the 16th century, the Spanish began to separate pantyhose from trousers and began to use knitting methods to knit socks. The Englishman William Lee (William Lee) engaged in hand knitting for his wife, which inspired him to study knitting machinery. In 1589, he invented the world's first hand-knitting machine for knitting woolen trousers. In 1598, it was modified into a knitting machine that could produce finer stockings. Soon after, the Frenchman Fournier began to produce stockings in Lyon. It was not until the mid-17th century that cotton socks began to be produced. After the American DuPont invented nylon in 1938, the first batch of nylon stockings was put on the market that year. Since then, the socks market has undergone a complete change. Nylon stockings gradually became popular and all the rage. They set the highest sales record in history in the United States and began to become common daily necessities.
[0003] Nowadays, socks are inextricably linked to our daily lives, and have spawned a wide range of healthcare-related products. For example, compression stockings, originally called medical compression stockings and more commonly known in China as elastic stockings, are used to treat lower limb venous disease and slim legs. They promote venous blood return to the heart, effectively relieving or improving pressure on the lower limb veins and venous valves. Furthermore, derivative products have been developed for various health-related purposes, including those related to various parts of the human body. Currently, the range of socks related to health is quite comprehensive.
[0004] With the increasing prevalence of AI and big data, the inventors of this case sought to further elevate health socks by integrating them with digital technology. This approach provides people with healthy and fashionable electronic socks that can better manage their health, provide entertainment, and offer a stylish and stylish look. Therefore, electronic sensors or electronic display technology, or both, are incorporated into specific or entire areas of the socks. This allows health socks to be optimized towards the integration of AI, big data, and the art of fashion and entertainment, extending this to the limbs and even the torso.
[0005] The sock's ability to directly attach to and position itself on various skin locations makes it an ideal medium for long-term placement of sensors to monitor limbs. Sensors can be placed at ideal limb locations pre-set by the sock, monitoring the electronic signals generated by that limb and its surroundings and transmitting them to a data box or remote data center, providing timely monitoring and information to the user, others, or the medical team.
[0006] The sensor can use receiving or projecting electronic or optical or pulse or pulsation sensing, as well as various different media required for beneficial monitoring and treatment, to provide real-time status monitoring of different parts of the body at specific limbs.
