Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of down jackets, and more specifically to a lightweight and breathable sports down jacket. Background Technology
[0002] Down jackets achieve their warmth by using a fluffy inner lining to improve air retention and reduce air exchange between the inside and outside. However, the reduced air convection also leads to poor moisture wicking and breathability. In order to make down jackets both warm and breathable, current technologies often use moisture-wicking and breathable surface materials to enhance their breathability.
[0003] For outdoor enthusiasts, this method of relying on surface materials to enhance breathability has the following drawbacks: its moisture-wicking and breathability capabilities are almost contradictory to its warmth-keeping capabilities, and it cannot adapt to the user's active or non-active state. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a lightweight and breathable down jacket for sports, which solves the problem that existing sports down jackets cannot adapt to changes in moisture wicking and breathability.
[0005] The present invention achieves the above objectives through the following technical solutions: A sporty, lightweight, and breathable down jacket, including The down jacket itself includes an outer fabric, a lining, and an inner lining; A support assembly for supporting the lining to form breathable gaps when enhanced breathability is required includes a flexible support portion disposed at the quilting seam of the inner lining, the interior of which is filled with moisture-sensitive expansion particles to provide support to the flexible support portion after expansion. A pneumatic assembly includes a support airbag disposed between an inner liner and a flexible support portion, the support airbag being used to lift the flexible support portion when inflated.
[0006] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, one end of the support part is provided with a connecting part for connecting with the quilted part of the inner lining, and the other end is freely disposed. The support airbag is disposed on the inner side of the corner between the support part and the connecting part. This embodiment effectively utilizes the quilted space by placing the support part at the quilted part of the inner lining, avoids the support component from causing the down jacket to become bulky, and makes the support part outward by supporting it with the support airbag.
[0007] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, a plurality of partition cloths are provided along the length of the support portion to divide the support portion into several filling cavities. The moisture-sensitive expansion particles are uniformly disposed in each filling cavity, and the partition cloths are also used to pull the two side walls of the support portion to prevent the side walls of the support portion from bulging to both sides. In this embodiment, by setting the partition cloths, the moisture-sensitive expansion particles are distributed in a long strip shape in the support portion. The support portion is soft in its normal state, but becomes hard after the moisture-sensitive expansion particles absorb moisture and expand, thus having a certain supporting performance.
[0008] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the surface of the support part is provided with a first magnetic sticker, and the quilting part on the side of the inner lining away from the support component is also provided with a second magnetic sticker, which is used to attach the support part to the quilting part of the inner lining when ventilation is not required. This embodiment, by setting the first magnetic sticker and the second magnetic sticker, enables the support part to be attached to the quilting part when ventilation and moisture wicking are not required, thus avoiding discomfort when wearing it.
[0009] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the pneumatic component further includes an inflation tube disposed at the placket of the down jacket body and a branch tube disposed along the quilting of the inner lining and connected to the inflation tube. The branch tube is connected to each support airbag. In this embodiment, the pneumatic component is used to inflate each support airbag so that its cross-section expands into a circle, thereby supporting the hardened support part.
[0010] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the placket is further provided with an exhaust valve connecting each branch pipe, and an air bladder is provided at the end of the inflation pipe. One end of the air bladder is provided with a one-way valve facing the inflation pipe, and the other end is provided with a one-way air inlet connecting to the outside. This embodiment controls whether active ventilation is performed by setting an air bladder, an exhaust valve, and a one-way valve. By repeatedly squeezing the air bladder, gas enters the inflation pipe in one direction and supports the air bladder. Then, the support part has an adaptive change in hardness according to the humidity, thereby creating a breathable space between the lining and the inner lining.
[0011] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, a breathable space is formed between the lining and the inner lining, and exhaust holes communicating with the breathable space are provided at the shoulders and hem of the down jacket body. After the breathable space is formed, it can easily exchange air with the external environment as the user moves, thereby enhancing the breathability and moisture wicking capacity in a short time.
[0012] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the moisture-sensitive expansion particle material is polyimide, which has good moisture absorption and expansion capacity.
[0013] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows: By setting a support component between the inner lining and the lining, and filling the support component with a moisture-absorbing and expanding material, the support part is stretched and hardened by the humidity change when the user sweats, thus providing support capability. Furthermore, a pneumatic component is set up so that the support airbag is actively inflated to support the support part, thereby creating a breathable space between the lining and the inner lining. During exercise, this space rises and falls with the movement, facilitating ventilation with the outside, greatly improving the breathability and moisture wicking capacity during exercise. When not exercising, the support part is in a soft state and will not cause a foreign body sensation when wearing it. Attached Figure Description

[0015] The present application will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be noted that the following specific embodiments are only used to further illustrate the present application and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the present application. Those skilled in the art can make some non-essential improvements and adjustments to the present application based on the above application content. Example 1
[0016] like Figures 1-6As shown, a lightweight and breathable sports down jacket includes a down jacket body 1, a support component 2, and a pneumatic component 3. The down jacket body 1 includes an outer fabric 11, a lining 12, and an inner liner 13. The support component 2 is used to support the lining 12 to form a breathable gap when enhanced breathability is needed. It includes a flexible support part 21 disposed at the quilting of the inner liner 13. The interior of the support part 21 is filled with moisture-sensitive expansion particles 24 to provide support after expansion. The pneumatic component 3 includes a support airbag 33 disposed between the inner liner 13 and the flexible support part 21. The support airbag 33 is used to lift the flexible support part 21 after inflation.
[0017] This solution involves setting a support component 2 between the inner liner 13 and the lining 12, with the support component 2 filled with a moisture-absorbing and expanding material. When the user sweats, the humidity changes cause the support part 21 to be stretched and hardened, thus providing support. Furthermore, a pneumatic component 3 is set up, which actively inflates the support airbag 33 to support the support part 21, thereby creating a breathable space between the lining 12 and the inner liner 13. During exercise, this space rises and falls with the movement, facilitating air exchange with the outside, greatly improving the breathability and moisture wicking capacity during exercise. When not exercising, the support part 21 is in a soft state, so it will not cause a foreign body sensation when worn.
[0018] When in use, if the user sweats due to exercise, the humidity increases, the moisture-sensitive expansion particles 24 absorb moisture and expand, supporting the support part 21 and giving the support part 21 a certain degree of rigidity. By inflating the support airbag 33, the support part 21 can rotate and tilt for support. When ventilation and sweating are not required, the support airbag 33 releases gas. When the humidity is insufficient, the support part 21 is in a soft state and will not affect comfort.
[0019] Preferably, one end of the support part 21 is provided with a connecting part 26 for connecting with the quilted part of the inner lining 13, and the other end is freely disposed. The support airbag 33 is disposed on the inner side of the corner between the support part 21 and the connecting part 26. This solution effectively utilizes the quilted space by placing the support part 21 at the quilted part of the inner lining 13, avoiding the support component 2 from causing the down jacket to become bulky, and the support part 21 is supported by the support airbag 33 to make the support part 21 push outward.
[0020] Preferably, the support portion 21 is provided with a plurality of partition cloths 23 along its length to divide the support portion 21 into several filling cavities 22. Moisture-sensitive expansion particles 24 are evenly disposed in each filling cavity 22. The partition cloths 23 are also used to pull the two side walls of the support portion 21 to prevent the side walls of the support portion 21 from bulging to both sides. In this solution, by setting the partition cloths 23, the moisture-sensitive expansion particles 24 are distributed in a long strip shape in the support portion 21. The support portion 21 is soft in its normal state, but becomes hard after the moisture-sensitive expansion particles 24 absorb moisture and expand, thus having a certain supporting performance. It should be noted that the hardness of the support portion 21 increases with the increase of humidity, but this hardness is not rigid hardness, but only enough to have a certain supporting performance compared to conventional clothing materials, so as to avoid excessive hardness that would cause the moisture-sensitive expansion particles 24 to break or cause severe foreign body sensation when wearing.
[0021] Preferably, the surface of the support part 21 is provided with a first magnetic sticker 25, and the quilting part of the inner liner 13 away from the support component 2 is also provided with a second magnetic sticker 27, which is used to attach the support part 21 to the quilting part of the inner liner 13 when ventilation is not required. This solution uses the first magnetic sticker 25 and the second magnetic sticker 27 to allow the support part 21 to be attached to the quilting part when ventilation and moisture wicking are not required, thus avoiding discomfort when wearing it.
[0022] Preferably, the pneumatic component 3 further includes an inflation tube 31 disposed at the placket of the down jacket body 1, and a branch tube 32 disposed along the quilting of the inner lining 13 and connected to the inflation tube 31. The branch tube 32 is connected to each support airbag 33. In this solution, the pneumatic component 3 is used to inflate each support airbag 33 so that its cross-section expands into a circle, thereby supporting the hardened support part 21.
[0023] Preferably, the placket is also provided with an exhaust valve 37 connecting each branch pipe 32, and an air bladder 34 is provided at the end of the inflation pipe 31. One end of the air bladder 34 is provided with a one-way valve 35 facing the inflation pipe 31, and the other end is provided with a one-way air inlet 36 connecting to the outside. This solution controls whether active ventilation is performed by setting the air bladder 34, the exhaust valve 37, and the one-way valve 35. By repeatedly squeezing the air bladder 34, gas enters the inflation pipe 31 in one direction and supports the supporting air bladder 33. Then, the support part 21 has an adaptive change in hardness according to the humidity, thereby creating a breathable space between the lining 12 and the inner lining 13.
[0024] Preferably, a breathable space is formed between the lining 12 and the inner lining 13, and exhaust holes that connect to the breathable space are opened at the shoulders and hem of the down jacket body 1. After the breathable space is formed, it can easily exchange air with the external environment as the user moves, thereby enhancing the breathability and moisture wicking capacity in a short time.
[0025] Alternatively, the moisture-sensitive expansion particles 24 can be made of polyimide, which has good moisture absorption and expansion capacity.
[0026] Implementation: When exercising while wearing this down jacket, if the user sweats, the humidity between the down jacket body 1 and the body increases significantly. The moisture-sensitive expansion particles 24 inside the support section 21 absorb moisture and expand, filling the filling cavity 22. This increases the rigidity of the flexible support section 21. When the user feels sweating, they repeatedly squeeze the air bladders 34, allowing external air to enter the inflation tube 31 unidirectionally and then through the branch tubes 32 into each support air bladder 33. The expansion of the support air bladders 33 causes the rigid support section 21 to rotate. Please refer to [link to relevant documentation]. Figures 5-6 A breathable space is formed between the lining 12 and the inner lining 13. The air in this part does not need to be exchanged with the outside through the inner lining 13, but is directly exchanged through the exhaust holes at the shoulders and hem of the down jacket body 1, which greatly improves the breathability and moisture wicking capacity and improves the comfort during exercise. After the ventilation is complete, open the exhaust valve 37 to allow the support airbag 33 to release its holes, thereby allowing the support part 21 to fold inside the quilting. Once the support part 21 has dried and returned to dryness, it will become soft again.
[0027] The embodiments described above are merely examples of several implementations of the present invention, and while the descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the present invention. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of the present invention, and these modifications and improvements all fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
