A medical pressure sock with an antibacterial fabric packing and an adhesive structure is provided. The antibacterial fabric packing is arranged on the inner surface. The adhesive structure is arranged at a position the pressure of which needs to be improved relative to the medial ankle of the lower limb; an adhesive surface connected with the adhesive structure is arranged on one side of the antibacterial fabric packing; the antibacterial fabric packing cross section includes a cross section front side, a cross section intermediate connection layer and a cross section rear side; the cross section intermediate connection layer has a special shape capable of being inserted into the cross section front side and the cross section rear side. The provided medical pressure sock solves the imbalance pressure and the not long-lasting antibacterial time problems of the traditional pressure socks, thus speeding up the recovery process of patients with varicose veins.

A process for manufacturing a fabric pressure sensor comprises cutting a sensing fabric to a pre-determined size, connecting a flexible electric wire with a wire of the sensing fabric by sewing, fixing the sensing fabric by means of a clamping positioner at a pre-determined tension, bonding a lower conversion layer with the sensing fabric by means of a lower conversion layer positioning box, bonding an adjustable column with the sensing fabric by means of an upper conversion layer positioning box, and bonding the upper conversion layer with the adjustable column by means of the upper conversion layer positioning box. A tool for manufacturing the sensor comprises an electrical property measuring device, a wire connecting tool, and a sensor structural component assembling tool. The present invention provides an easy and convenient way of manufacturing a fabric pressure sensor, monitoring the quality of manufacture, and enhancing the manufacturing precision and product yield.
