It is worn on the lower part of the body and has excellent ventilation while keeping warmth depending on the material of the material, so it can be worn in all four seasons.

In particular, unlike stockings, leggings are more elastic than stockings, but because they tighten the lower body, they make the legs of the lower body stand out and are worn by women on a daily basis.

In addition, depending on the material, it has excellent thermal insulation and excellent drying function by absorbing sweat, so it is often worn as functional underwear or sportswear regardless of gender or age.

These conventional leggings are made by cutting and sewing a fabric made of a material with excellent elasticity to the shape of pants.

As such, conventional leggings have a greater cosmetic purpose, so when worn for exercise, only pressure is emphasized, so there are many restrictions on movement and poor circulation.

In the case of the lower body, especially in the legs, after standing or walking for a long time, fatigue builds up in the legs and blood circulation is poor.

In addition, when standing or walking for a long time, the calves, shins, knees, and hips among the leg parts use more muscles than other parts, which increases the feeling of fatigue.

Therefore, it is necessary to develop leggings that can reduce fatigue in the lower body, prevent injuries during exercise, and help improve exercise performance.

As described above, in the functional leggings 100, some of the first pattern portions 110 to the sixth pattern portions 160 are formed of a fabric having greater elastic strength and compression strength than the remaining pattern portions. . More specifically, as follows.

First, the third pattern part 130 and the fifth pattern part 150 among the first pattern part 110 to the sixth pattern part 160 are formed of a fabric having the same elastic strength and compression strength. .

In this embodiment, for example, the third pattern part 130 and the fifth pattern part 150 are formed of a double knit fabric.

Meanwhile, among the first pattern part 110 to the sixth pattern part 160 , the first pattern part 110 , the second pattern part 120 , and the fourth pattern part 140 have the same elastic strength. And it is formed of a fabric having a pressing strength.

And the fabric forming the first pattern part 110 , the second pattern part 120 , and the fourth pattern part 140 includes the third pattern part 130 and the fifth pattern part 150 . It has greater elastic strength and compression strength than the elastic strength and compression strength of the fabric to be formed.

As described above, the first pattern part 110 , the second pattern part 120 , and the fourth pattern part 140 surround the wearer's lower abdomen region, waist region, hip region, and rear thigh region.

Lower body strengthening exercises such as deadlifts or squats stimulate the buttocks, thigh muscles, and obliques in the flanks. In particular, since these muscles have a large range of contraction and relaxation, it is necessary to assist in preventing damage to these muscles during exercise.

Therefore, as described above, the first pattern part 110 , the second pattern part 120 , and the fourth pattern part 140 are larger than the third pattern part 130 and the fifth pattern part 150 . It is to be formed from a fabric having greater elastic and compressive strength.

In this embodiment, the base layer 10 in which the first pattern part 110, the second pattern part 120, and the fourth pattern part 140 are formed of a single knit fabric by way of example; It is formed of a laminate fabric including a coating layer 20 coated with a polymer compound on the single knit fabric.

Referring to FIG. 3 , the laminate fabric is manufactured as follows. First, the polymer compound 11 changed to a foam state by applying heat 3 is applied to the upper surface of the single knit 10 . And when passed between the pair of rollers 1a and 1b arranged vertically, the single nit coated with the polymer compound is pressed, a portion of the polymer compound permeates into the single nit, and the remainder is coated.

In this embodiment, the polymer compound coated on the single knit is taken as an example of polyurethane (polyurethane). However, since the present invention is not limited thereto, various polymer compounds may be applied.

The sixth pattern unit 160 is formed of a single knit fabric. The sixth pattern part 160 is formed of only a single knitted fabric because it does not require high elastic strength and compression strength like the first pattern part 110 to the fifth pattern part 150 . Accordingly, the sixth pattern portion 160 has the lowest elastic strength and compression strength among the first pattern portion 110 to the sixth pattern portion 160 .

However, the single knit fabric forming the sixth pattern part 160 is made of the first pattern part 110 and the first pattern part 110, because the part covered by the sixth pattern part 160 is required to be breathable as much as the inner thigh region. The density of the tissue is lower than that of the single knit fabric used for the second pattern part 120 and the fourth pattern part 140 .

Therefore, the mesh size of the single knit fabric forming the sixth pattern unit 160 is used for the first pattern unit 110 , the second pattern unit 120 , and the fourth pattern unit 140 . It is formed larger than the mesh size of the single knit fabric.

4 and 5 show muscles to which stimulation is applied during exercises such as squats and deadlifts.

4 and 5 , it can be seen that a lot of stimulation is applied to the gluteal muscle (A) of the buttocks, the biceps femoris (B), the muscle in the front of the thigh (C), and the muscle (D) in the calf.

In addition, contraction and relaxation of muscle (A) is large in the buttocks, and the risk of injury is high in the thigh muscles, the external obliques of the abdomen, and the lower back. Accordingly, the first pattern part 110 , the second pattern part 120 , and the fourth pattern part 140 surrounding these parts are formed of a laminate fabric having the greatest elastic strength and compression strength.

On the other hand, the third pattern portion 130 and the fifth pattern portion 150 surrounding the portion where the front thigh muscle or calf muscle is relatively less stimulated are formed of a double knit fabric.

And since the inner thigh should be well ventilated, the sixth pattern part 160 surrounding the inner thigh is formed of a single knit fabric having a low tissue density.

6 shows a state when a squat posture is taken by wearing the functional leggings 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention. Referring to FIG. 6 , the first pattern part 110 , the second pattern part 120 , and the fourth pattern part 140 strongly press the lower abdomen, waist (X), and knee (Y) parts. to support it, and the buttocks portion (Z) is sufficiently elongated to be supported stably.

Although the embodiments of the present invention have been described above with reference to the accompanying drawings, those skilled in the art to which the present invention pertains can understand that the present invention may be embodied in other specific forms without changing the technical spirit or essential characteristics thereof. will be.

Therefore, the embodiments described above are to be understood as illustrative and not restrictive in all respects, and the scope of the present invention is indicated by the following claims, and from the meaning and scope of the claims and their equivalents. All derived changes or modifications should be construed as being included in the scope of the present invention.
