COMPRESSION KNITTED ARTICLE

摘要

The present disclosure provides a compression hosiery designed to be worn on a human leg. The compression hosiery includes a first portion adapted for a lower portion of a human leg and having a first pressure gradient slope and a second portion adapted for an upper portion of a human leg and having a second pressure gradient slope. The pressure gradient slopes generally decrease in a direction from the first portion to the second portion such that the compressive forces at the first portion are greater than the compressive forces at the second portion when the hosiery is worn.

主权项

1. A knitted article comprising:
a tubular body having a closed first end and an open second end connected by an intervening portion, wherein said article includes a plurality of zones having different compressive forces that extend inwardly from the perimeter of the knitted article and which generally decrease from the first end to the second end, and wherein said compressive forces have at least two different pressure gradient slopes with the pressure gradient slope nearer the first end being greater than the pressure gradient slope nearer the second end.
