Double socks and method for producing the same
First Claim
1. A double sock with an inner and outer layers, each layer in its endless band form, the double sock (A) being formed by knitting the starting part (1) corresponding to the toe tip of the inner layer (10) at first, then the toe part (2), sole part (3), heel part (4) and ankle part (5) in that order, and then continuously knitting the ankle part (5′
- ), heel part (4′
), sole part (3′
), toe part (2′
) and finishing part (1′
) belonging to the outer layer (20) in succession, arranging the inner layer (10) to be confronted with the outer layer (20), knitting the starting part (1) of the inner layer (10) together with the finishing part (1′
) in the vicinity of the toe part (2′
) of the outer layer (20) to join the starting and finishing parts to thereby connect the inner and outer layers (10, 20) integrally, and finally suturing the inner and outer layers (10, 20) at the toe part (2′
) of the outer layer (20) to leave a single suturing line (7).

Abstract
The present invention relates to double-layered socks with inner and outer layers for warmth preservation and exercise. The double-layered socks according to the invention are formed by knitting the starting part (1) corresponding to the toe tip of the inner layer (10) at first, then the toe part (2), sole part (3), heel part (4) and ankle part (5) in that order, and then continuously knitting the ankle part (5′), heel part (4′), sole part (3′), toe part (2′) and finishing part (1′) belonging to the outer layer (20) in succession. Then, the inner layer (10) is arranged to be confronted with the outer layer (20) so as to knit the starting part (1) of the inner layer (10) together with the finishing part (1′) of the outer layer (20) to join them. Finally, the inner and outer layers (10, 20) are sutured at the toe part (2′) of the outer layer (20) to leave a single suturing line (7). Accordingly, the thickness of the suturing seams in the socks is remarkably reduced, so that the suppression or friction by the uppers of shoes on the toe areas of wearers can be removed when shoes together with such inventive socks are put on. The method for manufacturing the inventive socks is simpler and requires less labor and time compared to the conventional ones, whereby the production efficiency is raised.

2. A method for manufacturing a double sock with an inner and outer layers, each layer in its endless band form, comprising the steps of:
- first knitting the starting part (1) corresponding to the uppermost tip of the toe part (2) in the inner layer (10), causing the starting part (1) to be hooked to an dial jack in the top plate of a sock knitting machine, continuously knitting the toe part (2), sole part (3), heel part (4) and ankle part (5) in that order, subsequently knitting the ankle part (5′
), heel part (4′
), sole part (3′
), toe part (2′
) and finishing part (1′
) belonging to the outer layer (20) in succession, pulling the knitted product down an cylinder by air suction, so that the inner layer (10) may be arranged to confront with the outer layer (20), the layers now in tube form, relative to the conjunction of the ankle part (5) of the inner layer (10) and the ankle part (5′
) of the outer layer (20);knitting part (1) of the inner layer (10) together with the finishing part (1′
) in the vicinity of the toe part (2′
) of the outer layer (20) to join the starting and finishing parts to thereby connect the inner and outer layers (10, 20) integrally; and
finally suturing the inner and outer layers (10, 20) at the open envelope position of the toe part (2′
) of the outer layer (20) so as to leave a single suturing line (7).
- first knitting the starting part (1) corresponding to the uppermost tip of the toe part (2) in the inner layer (10), causing the starting part (1) to be hooked to an dial jack in the top plate of a sock knitting machine, continuously knitting the toe part (2), sole part (3), heel part (4) and ankle part (5) in that order, subsequently knitting the ankle part (5′
