Sock

A sock is provided having a first compression area 1 which raises the compressive force in a wale direction from a position A behind the toe area of a sole portion of the sock to a position C which includes the boundary between an arch portion B and a heel portion 6, a second compression area 2 provided on the periphery to raise the compressive force in a course direction at the position A behind the toe area, a third compression area 3 provided on the periphery to raise the compressive force in a course direction at an ankle portion D, and a fourth compression area 4 provided on the periphery to raise the compressive force in a course direction from the position C which includes the boundary between the arch portion B and the heel portion 6 to a position E at the base of the instep portion. The advantageous effect of protecting and restoring the shape of the longitudinal plantar arch is produced by the various compression areas, thereby stabilizing the position of the various compression areas while the sock is worn.

Insole personalized design method for support pressure reduction function

The invention discloses an insole personalized design method for a support pressure reduction function. The method comprises the following steps: designing an insole conforming to human engineering byusing personalized data, scanning the insole of a specific user by using equipment to obtain a scanned insole model, and synchronously prefabricating the insole model by using the scanned insole model as an insole template; and therefore, the insole with the edge contour matched with the shoe is obtained. The arch supporting appearance is designed by means of the scanned insole model and the prefabricated insole model, plantar pressure is redistributed by increasing the contact area of the foot and the insole, and excessive stress of part of areas is reduced. A device is used for collecting plantar dynamic pressure, the shape of the insole matched with plantar pressure distribution is designed by processing and analyzing a plantar dynamic pressure graph, and pressure borne by main stressareas of a forefoot and a heel is reduced in the mode of increasing the foot landing buffer distance. The pressure reduction insole can redistribute plantar pressure, improves wearing comfort, provides proper protection for feet, and reduces foot injury risks.
