  • Patent number: 11871799
    Abstract: A compression sock or bandage made of a base textile includes a tubular leg having a collar, on which compression elements are arranged over the length of the tubular leg, which have a structure, yarn thickness, or yarn material differing from a structure, yarn thickness, or yarn material of the base textile. The compression elements include at least two opposing helices, which extend circumferentially around the tubular leg from the ankle region in the direction of the collar, and which cross at least once and are connected to the base textile in that the knitting pattern or the yarn of the helices is fastened to the base textile to provide stabilizing support. At least one cushion is formed on the base textile on the front side of the compression sock or bandage along a shin region, which protrudes from the collar to the ankle region and at least partially overlaps the crossing helices.

  • Publication number: 20220248800
    Abstract: The invention relates to a set comprising a shoe (1) with a shoe sole (3), which has a support layer (31) and a plurality of support elements (4), wherein the support layer (31) comprises a plurality of cavities (310) having identical, constant cavity cross-sectional areas. At least one end face of each cavity (310) is recessed, whereby a structure of cavities (310) open on at least one side is created in the support layer (31). The support elements (4) are designed as rods with identical, constant cross-sectional areas and can be inserted into and removed from the cavities (310) in a form-fitting manner, wherein the support elements (4) are present in different strengths, such that the damping of the shoe sole (3) can be changed by the choice of the inserted support elements (4).

  • Publication number: 20210015190
    Abstract: In a garment a breathable effect in breathable regions can be obtained despite a lack of direct contact with the skin of a wearer. The textile layer has at least one breathable region at a distance from the wearer's skin when the garment is worn, in which breathable region a plurality of thread tentacles, each designed in a single piece as an open loop, are brought out of individual second threads into the textile layer in such a way that each thread tentacle has two tentacle sections pointing away from the inner side of the textile layer and one central section extending along on the outer side. The tentacle sections of the thread tentacles can, when the garment is worn, be brought into direct contact with the surface of the wearer's skin, while the inner side of the textile layer remains at a distance from the skin surface in the region of the breathable region.

  • Publication number: 20180317582
    Abstract: A piece of sportswear with at least one controlled temperature zone which is made of a textile fabric structure that is shirred locally via tension zones so as to form webs. The webs are designed to contact the skin of the wearer on the interior of the fabric structure, and inner air channels are formed between the webs. At least one groove which forms an outer air channel is formed on the rear face of each of the webs on the shirred sheet structure. The controlled temperature zone is equipped with individualized controlled temperature elements which are contained in short webs separated from one another by lateral separation zones. Adjacent inner air channels are connected together by the separation zones, and the separation zones are laterally offset to one another between the controlled temperature elements such that the controlled temperature elements are arranged to at least partly overlap with respect to the length of the vertical body axis.
