Abstract

A pair of socks (10) wherein each sock comprises a connector (16) operably attached thereto wherein each connector comprises locking means (42, 38) for cooperatively locking with the other connector. A connector (16) for a pair of socks comprising two elements each attachable to one of the socks wherein the elements comprise cooperating means for releasably locking the socks together.

Description

PAIR OF SOCKS
The invention relates to a pair of socks and to connectors for joining socks in a pair
It is recognised that there is considerable difficulty for wearers of socks in retaining
two socks belonging to a pair together throughout the process of washing and storing
the socks after use
In order to overcome this problem and difficulties associated in easily keeping pairs
of socks together, it is known to provide a sock connector comprising a plate having
two holes through each of which parts of a sock can pass The nm of the holes
comprises a series of resilient webs which allow easy insertion of a sock into the
aperture by a user but which gnp the sock sufficiently to inhibit removal for example
in a washing machine However, such known devices present the user with a problem
of first locating such a device, some time after removal of a pair of socks, before the
socks can be connected. Secondly, the device is rather large requinng significant
material for manufacture and also taking up a significant amount of storage space
compared to the size of the pair of socks
Ursino in US 5038413 provides a fastening device for a pair of socks, each fastener
comprising a first element having axial spikes passing through the sock fabric, a
reinforcement matenal positionable between the first element and the sock, and an outer part attachable to the spikes and comprising locking means for cooperating with
its respective opposite outer part thereby to enable the socks to be fastened together.
The fastener device further comprises detachable covers having on one surface a
design and on the other surface means for connecting to the outer part of the sock
fasteners when the socks are not connected. However, such covers are easily lost and
need to be added to the fasteners after washing thereby causing the user inconvenience.
The invention seeks to avoid or at least mitigate the problems of the prior art.
According to one aspect of the invention there is provided a pair of socks comprising
a first sock operably having a first connector and a second sock operably having a
second connector which first and second connectors respectively comprise first and
second locking means for releasably and cooperatively locking the connectors together,
each connector comprising a first and second member attachable to one another on
opposite sides of a region of sock fabric wherein the first member of the first and
second connectors respectively comprise said first and second locking means and the
second members of the first and second connectors comprise a surface for a design,
and wherein the first member of each connector is positioned on the inside of the sock
and the second member of each connector is positioned on the outside of the sock in
the socks usual configuration for wear.
Preferably, the surfaces for the designs are integral with the second members. Also, the first and second locking means can comprise a lug and a recess wherein the
lug is adapted releasably to lock into the recess. The lug can comprise an annulus
having a resilient outer flange. The first and second members can comprise means for
releasably and cooperatively locking together. The member locking means preferably
comprises a lug and a recess. The lug can be a tab or pin which can pass through the
fabric of a sock without damage thereto. The connectors are preferably made of
plastics material.
Another aspect of the invention provides a connector comprising two members each
comprising cooperating member locking means thereby to enable the members
releasably to attach to a sock. The member locking means preferably comprises a tab
or pin which can pass through the fabric of the sock without damage thereto, thereby
to enable the members to lock together on opposite sides of the sock fabric.
An embodiment of the invention will now be described, by way of example only, with
reference to the accompanying drawings, in which:
Figure 1 is a schematic perspective view of a pair of socks according to the
invention;
Figure 2 is a schematic perspective view of a connector according to the invention;
Figure 3 is a sectional side elevation view of the connector shown in figure 2;
and
Figure 4 is a pair of end elevation views of one of the members of the
connector shown in figures 2 and 3.
Figure 1 shows a pair socks 10 according to the invention comprising a first and
second sock 12 and 14 respectively, and a connector 16 connecting the socks together.
In this embodiment, the connector 16 comprises a first part 18 and second part 20 each
comprising two members as shown in Figure 2. Accordingly, connector 16 comprises
members 22, 24, 26 and 28 wherein members 22 and 24 are releasably connectable to
one another to form first connector part 18 and members 26 and 28 are releasably
connectably together to form second connector part 20.
Referring to figure 3, there is shown an example of how the members can be connected
together. Accordingly, member 22 can comprise a recess 30 having an outermost rim
32 of relatively narrow diameter, whilst member 24 can comprise a lug 34 comprising
outermost shoulders 36 for cooperating with the inner edge of rim 32 after lug 34 is passed into recess 30. Similarly, members 26 and 28 can comprise recess 46
comprising rim 48 and lug 50 comprising locking shoulder 52. Of course, the lug or
recess can be positioned on either one of the members in a cooperating pair.
To attach the members to a sock, lugs 34 and 50 which can effectively be very small
pins, are passed through the layer of material making up the sock before insertion into
recesses 30 and 46 respectively. By keeping lugs 34 and 50 relatively small, there need
not be any damage to the material when attaching a pair of members together.
Additionally, member 24 comprises a recess 38 having an outer rim 40 of relatively
small diameter. Member 26 comprises a locking annulus 42 comprising an outer
flange 44 for cooperating with the inner surface of rim 40 when annulus 42 is passed
into recess 38.
Further views of member 24 are shown in figure 4 which show end elevation views of
this member. The right-hand view is a right-hand end elevation with respect to figure
3, and the left-hand view is a left-hand end elevation of the view shown in figure 3.
The members 22 to 28 of connector 16 preferably are made of plastics material and can
be injection moulded for example. Thus, lugs 34 and 50 annulus 42 and rims 32, 48
and 40 of the recesses can be resilient enabling insertion, locking and removal of the various cooperating features.
Preferably each member has a outermost diameter in the order of a few millimetres.
Accordingly, parts 18 and 20 can be comfortably located for example at the upper rear
part of a sock in order not to cause the wearer any discomfort during use of a pair of
socks 10. Beneficially, each part 18 and 20 can comprise an outer smooth surface 54
which can carry a logo or other image enabling advertising or character merchandising.
In order to present surface 54 to the outside of the sock in use, members 24 and 26
which cooperate with one another to keep a pair of socks together, should be placed
on the inside portion of a sock. The top of the sock can then be rolled over as shown
in figure 1 to enable the members 24 and 26, and thus parts 18 and 20 of connector 16,
to lock together. Alternatively, surface 54 can be presented to the inside of the sock
in use and can be shaped to contour the surface of the adjacent body part such as the
heel or Achilles tendon for example. In a further alternative the annulus 42 and rim
40 can be shaped for example having a curved surface in the form of a groove to
contour part of the heel or lower leg of a user.
