Compression device
A compression article which is produced from an elastic textile material, in particular a knitted fabric, and which is provided with at least one elastic holding strap which protects against slipping on the body part, characterized in that the holding strap is produced using a friction thread which is located in places on the strap inner side on the surface of the strap.
1. A compression article for supporting a body part, said compression article being produced from an elastic textile material, in the form of a knitted fabric ( 11 ), and which is provided with at least one elastic holding strap ( 12 ) which protects against slipping on the body part, wherein the holding strap ( 12 ) is produced using a friction thread ( 13 ) which is located in places on a surface of the strap ( 12 ) on an inner side of the strap, wherein the total area of the locations at which the friction thread ( 13 ) is located on the surface of the inner side of the strap is less than 25% of the surface of the inner side of the strap.
2. The compression article according to claim 1 , wherein the holding strap ( 12 ) is a woven strap.
3. The compression article according to claim 1 , wherein the friction thread ( 13 ) is completely covered by other threads on an outer side of the strap.
4. The compression article according to claim 1 , wherein the holding strap ( 12 ) exerts a compression pressure which is in a fixed ratio to a compression pressure of an adjacent region of the knitted fabric ( 11 ), so that the holding strap ( 12 ) continues the continuous drop in the compression pressure from a distal end to a proximal end of the knitted fabric ( 11 ), or exerts a higher pressure than the adjacent knitted fabric ( 11 ).
5. The compression article according to claim 1 , wherein the knitted fabric ( 11 ) is adapted anatomically to the body part to be supported.
6. The compression article according to claim 1 , wherein the locations at which the friction thread ( 13 ) is located on the surface of the strap inner side are uniformly distributed over the inner side of the strap.
7. The compression article according to claim 2 , wherein the friction thread forms a part of the warp threads of the holding strap ( 12 ).
8. The compression article according to claim 1 , wherein the holding strap ( 12 ) also comprises gimped elastic threads and polyamide threads.
9. The compression article according to claim 1 , wherein the friction thread ( 13 ) is transparent or translucent.
10. The compression article according to claim 1 , wherein the holding strap ( 12 ) is sewn onto the knitted fabric ( 11 ).
