Description

Protective structure

The present invention is to provide a protective gear structure, in particular to a protective gear structure that is convenient to wear, can avoid the reduction of opening tension, and can provide the external support force of the muscles near the joint.

According to, in view of the problem that the knee and elbow joints are prone to sports injuries, there are many kinds of knee joint protectors and elbow joint protectors made of elastic fabrics on the market. The muscles are directly elastically pressurized to improve the stability of joint activities. As far as the knee protector is concerned, although it can produce upward support for the knee joint, the compression and tightening force for the inner and lateral ligaments of the knee joint is small. As far as the elbow protector is concerned, the elbow protector is An X-shaped support part is provided in the opposite direction of the elbow, but the X-shaped support part is likely to cause obstacles when the elbow joint is flexed, and is not suitable for wearing during exercise.

In addition, in order to make the joint protector close to the surface of the skin, the user needs to pull it to the correct position for maximum effect when wearing it. However, the way of wearing a cylindrical joint protector is generally determined by The user's fingers pinch the protector body adjacent to the upper opening as a force application point, and pull the protector body to move upward, so that the protector body is sheathed at the knee joint or the elbow joint. However, after multiple putting on and taking off actions, the tension of the opening part will become weaker and weaker, causing the protector body to lose its tightening effect.

Therefore, when the above cylindrical joint protector is used, the following problems and deficiencies need to be improved:

1. The main body of the protective gear is prone to pull the opening to wear action, resulting in weakening of the tension of the opening and losing the proper function of the protective gear body.

2. It did not pressurize the muscles near the knee joint or elbow joint, resulting in poor tightening effect or hindering bending.

Therefore, how to solve the above-mentioned conventional problems and deficiencies is the direction that the creators of the present invention and related manufacturers engaged in this industry urgently want to study and improve.

Therefore, in view of the above-mentioned deficiencies, the creator of the present invention collected relevant information, evaluated and considered in many ways, and based on the accumulated years of experience in this industry, through continuous trials and modifications, he designed this kind of convenient wear and avoidable The patent for the invention of the protective structure that reduces the tension of the opening and can provide the external support force of the muscles near the joint.

The main purpose of the present invention is to use the circular knitting technique to integrally form a pull ear portion at the port of the cylindrical fabric to facilitate the user's wearing action, thereby avoiding the elasticity of the opening and causing the cylindrical fabric to lose its proper function.

Another main purpose of the present invention is to use the first pressure zone and the second pressure zone to provide compression support to the muscles near the knee joint or elbow joint, so as to help enhance muscle contraction ability and reduce muscle overextension.

In order to achieve the above-mentioned object, the present invention uses a cylindrical knitting machine to integrally form a cylindrical fabric which is automatically woven. The cylindrical fabric mainly includes: a base for sheathing at the joints of any limb of the human body, the base A first tightening portion is formed at one end of the portion, and a second tightening portion is formed at the other end of the base portion, and a plurality of pulling ear portions are protrudingly formed on the side of the first tightening portion away from the base portion to tie For the assisting user to wear the cylindrical fabric, at least one first pressure zone connecting the first and second tightening parts is formed on the base part, and at least one pressure zone is formed on the base part. One end is respectively connected to the second pressure zone of the first tightening part and the second tightening part, the second pressure zone is separated from the first pressure zone, and the first pressure zone and the second pressure The tension of the zone is greater than the tension of the base.

When the user uses the present invention as a joint protector, one of the limbs can also be directly inserted into the cylindrical fabric, and at this time, the position can be adjusted by pulling the ears to avoid unnecessary damage to the first tightening part. The stretching, which affects its tensile strength, also allows users to more easily adjust the cylindrical fabric to the correct joint position, and the position of the cylindrical fabric is fixed by the first tightening part and the second tightening part. After the adjustment is completed, the greater tension of the first pressure zone and the second pressure zone can be used to provide a compression effect extending from the first tightening part to the second tightening part, and achieve an effect similar to an intramuscular sticking part , And the first pressure zone and the second pressure zone are separately arranged on both sides of the joint, which can avoid affecting the bending action of the joint, and at the same time help to enhance the muscle contraction ability and reduce muscle overextension.

With the above technology, it is possible to overcome the problems of inconvenience in wearing, easy to weaken opening tension, and improper support for joint muscles of conventional cylindrical joint protectors, and achieve the practical progress of the above advantages.
