Abstract

The clothing main body (110) is a clothing constituted by a sheet member (S) having a fabric (2) with high reflectivity or absorbency of sunlight and a heat-insulating layer (3) containing air, and thus the fabric (2) reflects or absorbs sunlight, and air circulates between the heat-insulating layer (3) and the skin or underwear, thereby suppressing the heat from reaching the skin or underwear. Therefore, even in the case where the outside air temperature is higher than the skin temperature, the heat is blocked by the heat-insulating layer (3), the rise in the skin temperature can be suppressed, and the function can be effectively exerted as a fan clothing (100).

Description

[0001] This patent application is a divisional application of Chinese patent application No. 202180025411.4, filed by Air Conditioning Clothing Co., Ltd., entitled "Clothing Body with Fan and Clothing with Fan". Technical Field

[0002] This invention relates to the main body of a garment with a fan and to a garment with a fan. Background Technology

[0003] In recent years, fan-equipped clothing for cooling the body has become practical and rapidly popular (see, for example, Patent Document 1).

[0004] In recent years, due to the effects of global warming, there are many days when the air temperature is higher than the body surface temperature. Therefore, materials for fan-operated clothing need to be highly insulating to prevent the temperature of the outside air from being transferred to the inside of the garment. In addition, since fan-operated clothing is mostly used outdoors, it is also important to choose clothing with strong sunlight blocking capabilities.

[0005] To address this need, it is known that fan-shaped garments improve the sun-blocking effect by performing a titanium sputtering process on the back side of the polyester fabric (for example, see reference 2).

[0006] Patent Document 1: International Publication No. 2005 / 063065

[0007] Patent Document 2: Japanese Patent Application Publication No. 2005-154970

[0008] However, there are several drawbacks: titanium sputtering can only be applied to polyester fabrics. Additionally, the cost is high, and the film wears down with use due to friction with underwear, thus failing to maintain its sun-blocking effect for long periods. Furthermore, its insulation effect against heat intrusion from external air temperatures higher than skin temperature is weak. Summary of the Invention

[0076] [First Implementation]

[0077] The following is for reference Figures 1-3 A first embodiment of the main body of the fan-equipped garment of the present invention will be described in detail. However, in the embodiments described below, various technically preferred limitations have been added for carrying out the present invention, but the scope of the present invention is not limited to the following embodiments and illustrated examples.

[0078] Furthermore, the following explanation is based on the state of the wearer wearing the fan-equipped clothing 100, with the wearer's front side defined as front, the wearer's back side as back, the wearer's upper side as upper, the wearer's lower side as lower, the wearer's right side as right, and the wearer's left side as left.

[0079] [Clothing with a fan]

[0080] like Figure 1 As shown, the fan-equipped garment 100 includes a garment body 110, a fan 140 that introduces air into the garment body 110, a power supply unit 120 that supplies power to the fan 140, and a connecting cable 130 that connects the fan 140 and the power supply unit 120. By allowing the air obtained by the fan 140 from inside the garment body 110 to circulate along the surface of the wearer's body or underwear, the sweat expelled from the body evaporates, and the heat of vaporization during evaporation is used to cool the body.

[0081] [Clothing Body]

[0082] The main body of the garment, exemplified by a jacket, is used as an example for illustration, but as... Figure 1 As shown, a sheet-like component S, which is either non-breathable or has a degree of breathability that allows it to expand due to the introduction of air via the fan 140, is formed to cover at least the wearer's torso. Furthermore, in Figure 1In this invention, the main body of the garment 110 is formed as a jacket that covers the wearer's torso and arms. However, the shape of the main body of the garment 110 is not limited to this. For example, it can also be formed as a jumpsuit with an integrated upper and lower garment, a vest that only covers the torso, or a coat that covers the wearer's torso, arms, and part of the legs. The main body of the garment 110 of this invention is not limited to a jacket.

[0083] Furthermore, the garment body 110 refers to the part of the fan-equipped garment 100 that functions as clothing, excluding electrical components such as the power supply unit 120, connecting cable 130, and fan 140. Additionally, the fabric refers to the part of the sheet-like component S that constitutes the garment, covering the wearer's body and determining the shape of the garment, excluding additional parts such as sheet-like components S used for pockets that do not affect the shape of the garment.

[0084] Furthermore, the side of the garment body 110 facing the wearer when worn is designated as the back side, and the opposite side facing the outside space when worn is designated as the surface side. Additionally, the back side of the fabric and the portion of the garment body 110 that is closer to the wearer than the back side of the fabric when worn are designated as the back side of the garment body 110, and the surface side of the fabric and the portion of the garment body 110 that is closer to the outside space than the surface side of the fabric when worn are designated as the surface side of the garment body 110.

[0085] The garment body 110 includes an opening and closing unit 111, an air leakage prevention unit 112, a fan mounting hole 113, an air exhaust section 114, a power supply holding unit 115, and a cable holding unit 116.

[0086] in addition, Figure 2A This is a plan view enlarged of the fan-equipped garment 100 according to the first embodiment. Figure 2B yes Figure 2A A sectional view of section IIB-IIB. (See attached image.) Figure 2B As shown, the fan-equipped garment 100 of the first embodiment is a garment made of a sheet-like component S having a fabric 2 and a heat insulation layer 3.

[0087] (Fabric)

[0088] Fabric 2 is the fabric that forms the surface side of the fan-shaped garment 100, and is mainly formed of a tightly woven fabric.

[0089] Fabric 2 can be made of materials such as polyester, blends of polyester and cotton, or nylon, as long as it has low air permeability; it is not limited to the materials mentioned above. In addition, the shading rate of sunlight can also be considered.

[0090] (Insulation layer)

[0091] The heat insulation layer 3 is a fabric fixed to the back side of the fabric 2, and is formed of a material that can contain air.

[0092] In this embodiment, it is preferable to use fleece fabric made of polyethylene terephthalate. However, as will be described later, when the insulation layer 3 is a three-layer structure, for example, down or other downy materials, or synthetic fiber cotton made of nylon, polyester, or natural cotton made of sponge or cotton can be used as appropriate.

[0093] Furthermore, when the insulation layer 3 is made of sponge, it is preferable to have a foaming rate of 80% or more and a thickness of 5 mm or more; when it is made of down, it is preferable to have an inner layer of 3L / m³. 2 The air above.

[0094] Example

[0095] Hereinafter, the results of evaluating the preferred structure for thermal insulation effect will be described with reference to embodiments and comparative examples of the present invention. The present invention will be specifically described below through examples, but the present invention is not limited thereto.

[0096] [Structure of the Examples and Comparative Examples]

[0097] Samples with the following heat insulation layer 3, namely Examples 1 to 4, Comparative Example 1 (direct irradiation) without using a sample, and a sample without heat insulation layer 3 but composed only of fabric, namely Comparative Example 2, were prepared. Furthermore, each sample of Examples 1 to 4 was a cushion-like bag-shaped body with a heat insulation layer 3 disposed between two pieces of 100% polyester fabric with a side length of approximately 400 mm and a thickness of approximately 0.1 mm. As described below, each heat insulation layer 3 contained down (Examples 1 and 2) and cotton wadding (Examples 3 and 4), respectively. In order to allow for comparison using down and cotton wadding, the thickness of the heat insulation layer 3 composed of down or cotton wadding was set to be approximately the same as in Examples 1 and 3, and Examples 2 and 4, when contained in the bag-shaped body.

[0098] (Example 1)

[0099] Down, consisting of 80% down and 20% feathers, with a fill power of 670, is packed into the aforementioned bag-shaped body with a thickness of approximately 13.0 mm to form the insulation layer 3.

[0100] (Example 2)

[0101] Down, consisting of 80% down and 20% feathers, with a fill power of 670, is packed into the aforementioned bag-shaped body with a thickness of approximately 33.5 mm to form the insulation layer 3.

[0102] (Example 3)

[0103] Two layers of 6.5mm thick cotton wadding (KNF-350 manufactured by Vilene Co., Ltd., Japan) made of 100% polyester were overlapped and placed inside the bag-like structure to form the insulation layer 3. In this embodiment 3, the thickness of the polyester cotton wadding that forms the insulation layer 3 is approximately 13.0mm.

[0104] (Example 4)

[0105] A structure consisting of three layers of cotton wadding (KNF-950 manufactured by Vilene Co., Ltd., Japan) with a thickness of 16.5 mm, a thickness of 10.5 mm, a thickness of KNF-650 manufactured by Vilene Co., Ltd., Japan, and a thickness of 6.5 mm (KNF-350 manufactured by Vilene Co., Ltd., Japan), each made of 100% polyester, is stacked together within the aforementioned bag-like body to form the heat insulation layer 3. In this embodiment 4, the thickness of the polyester cotton wadding that forms the heat insulation layer 3 is approximately 33.5 mm.

[0106] (Comparative Example 1)

[0107] An example of directly illuminating the sensor with an artificial sun lamp without clamping a sample (direct illumination).

[0108] (Comparative Example 2)

[0109] Only the fabric (100% polyester, approximately 0.1 mm thick, and a square with one side approximately 400 mm) used to form the bag-shaped body in Examples 1 to 4 above was prepared as a sample.

[0110] [Experiment Content]

[0111] An artificial solar lamp (Seric XC-100E) was installed 1 m away from the sample placement location of the above-described embodiments and comparative examples. The sample was configured such that only the surface facing the artificial solar lamp was open on the lower part of the sample, opposite the placement location of the sample and the artificial solar lamp, and this open surface was covered by the sample, thereby forming a predetermined volume (approximately 5600 cm²). 3 A polystyrene foam with a volume of approximately 25cm in length, 16cm in width, and 14cm in height was used to simulate the internal state of a garment worn by the main body 110. Within this structure, temperature changes were measured when the sample was irradiated with an artificial sunlight for 10, 20, and 30 minutes. Furthermore, to facilitate monitoring of temperature changes, the sensor was covered with a black cloth.

[0112] The results of the above experiments are shown in Table I.

[0113]

[0114] (evaluate)

[0115] Comparing Examples 1-4 with Comparative Examples 1 and 2, it can be seen that by providing the heat insulation layer 3, a significant heat insulation effect is achieved against sunlight.

[0116] Furthermore, comparing Example 1 with Example 2, and Example 3 with Example 4, it can be seen that by thickening the insulation layer 3, a stronger insulation effect can be obtained.

[0117] Furthermore, comparing Example 1 with Example 3, it can be seen that: as the insulation layer 3, down can provide a stronger insulation effect compared to cotton wadding, but even when cotton wadding is used, sufficient insulation effect can be obtained.

[0118] (Opening and closing unit)

[0119] return Figure 1 The opening and closing unit 111 is used to design the garment body 110 as a front-opening structure, allowing the front of the garment body 110 to be opened and closed when wearing the fan-equipped garment 100. Its specific structure is arbitrary, but for example, a regular zipper can be used. Furthermore, the opening and closing unit 111 is not limited to a zipper, as long as it allows for easy assembly and disassembly of the segmented front portion of the garment body 110; however, a zipper is preferred from the viewpoint of preventing air leakage.

[0120] (Air Leakage Prevention Unit)

[0121] like Figure 1 As shown, the air leakage prevention unit 112 is a unit provided at the lower part of the garment body 110 for preventing air in the space between the garment body 110 and the wearer's body from leaking out from the hem of the garment body 110 to the outside. As long as it can prevent air from leaking out from the lower part of the garment body 110, its specific structure is arbitrary. For example, it can be formed by equipping a stretchable component such as a rubber cord around the wearer's body at a position corresponding to the abdomen of the wearer of the garment body 110.

[0122] When the fan-equipped garment 100 is worn, the air leakage prevention unit 112 tightens the garment body 110 at the position corresponding to the wearer's abdomen, making it fit snugly against the wearer's body. This prevents air introduced by the fan 140 from flowing from the space between the garment body 110 and the wearer's upper body to the space between the garment body 110 and the wearer's lower body. As a result, the amount of air discharged from the air exhaust section 114 can be increased, improving the cooling effect on the wearer's upper body.

[0123] Furthermore, the air leakage prevention unit 112 is not a necessary structure. For example, if the garment body 110 is a one-piece suit and does not have an air leakage prevention unit 112, it can be designed so that the air introduced by the fan 140 flows from the space between the garment body 110 and the wearer's upper body to the space between the garment body 110 and the wearer's lower body, and is discharged from the hem. In this case, the wearer's entire body can be cooled without any leakage.

[0124] In this way, depending on the manner of the garment body 110, the air leakage prevention unit 112 may not be provided.

[0125] (Fan mounting holes)

[0126] like Figure 1 As shown, the fan mounting hole 113 is a hole formed on the sheet-like part S forming the garment body 110 at a position corresponding to the left and right sides of the wearer's waist. When the garment 100 with fan is worn, it connects the space between the garment body 110 and the wearer's body to the outside. Its shape is to match the shape of the fan 140.

[0127] The fan 140 is installed by inserting it through the fan mounting hole 113, thereby allowing outside air to be drawn into the garment body 110 through the fan mounting hole 113.

[0128] Furthermore, the location for forming the fan mounting hole 113 is preferred from the viewpoint of effectively cooling the wearer when wearing the fan-equipped garment 100, but it is not limited to this location. For example, it can also be formed at a location corresponding to the wearer's armpit.

[0129] In addition, the number of fan mounting holes 113 is not limited to two. A number of fan mounting holes 113, either less or more than two, can be formed, and a corresponding number of fans 140 can be installed.

[0130] (Air exhaust section)

[0131] like Figure 1 As shown, the air exhaust section 114 is an opening for discharging air introduced by the fan 140 from the fan mounting hole 113 after it flows along the wearer's body or underwear. For example, a collar air exhaust section 1141 is formed between the wearer's neck and the end of the collar of the garment body 110, and a sleeve air exhaust section 1142 is formed between the wearer's arm and the sleeve of the garment body 110.

[0132] Furthermore, the air exhaust section 114 is only required to allow the air introduced into the garment body 110 by the fan 140 to circulate along the wearer's body or underwear before being exhausted, and its location is not limited to the collar and sleeves.

[0133] [Power Supply Section]

[0134] The power supply unit 120 is a component for supplying power to the fan 140 described later. It is installed on or near the garment body 110, such as a waistband, via the power supply unit holding unit 115. For example, it has a built-in lithium-ion battery pack with added safety protection circuitry and a second connection terminal (not shown) for connecting to the fan 140 via the connection cable 130 described later.

[0135] [Connecting cable]

[0136] The connecting cable 130 is a cable connecting the power supply unit 120 and the fan 140. It is held on the inner surface of the garment body 110 by the cable holding unit 116, and the power required for the operation of the fan 140 is supplied from the power supply unit 120 to the fan 140 through the connecting cable 130.

[0137] Furthermore, the specific structures of the power supply holding unit 115, the cable holding unit 116, the power supply unit 120, and the connecting cable 130 are arbitrary.

[0138] [fan]

[0139] like Figure 1 As shown, the fan 140 is a generally flat, roughly circular air intake unit that is inserted through the fan mounting hole 113 to be mounted on the garment body 110 and to introduce air into the space between the garment body 110 and the wearer's body through the fan mounting hole 113.

[0140] As for the fan 140, it only needs to be inserted through the fan mounting hole 113 to be installed on the garment body 110 and to be able to introduce air into the garment body 110. Any structure can be used, but for example... Figure 3 As shown, it includes a fan body 141 and an annular mounting ring 142 for fixing the fan body 141 to the garment body 110.

[0141] [Fan body]

[0142] The fan body 141 internally houses a propeller (not shown) and a motor (not shown), as... Figure 3As shown, the device includes: an air intake section 1411 that receives air when the fan 140 is in use; an air outlet section 1412 that delivers air when the fan 140 is in use; a cylindrical connecting section, i.e., a cylindrical section 1413, between the air intake section 1411 and the air outlet section 1412; and a flange section 1414 that protrudes from the end of the cylindrical section 1413 on the air intake section 1411 side in a direction substantially perpendicular to the side surface of the cylindrical section 1413. Furthermore, the air intake section 1411 has an opening that passes through the air outlet section 1412 and serves as a path for air to enter the fan-equipped garment 100. The cylindrical section 1413 is formed into a circle with a circular cross-section when cut with a plane perpendicular to its central axis, and its shape is approximately the same as the diameter of the fan mounting hole 113.

[0143] Furthermore, the shape of the fan 140 is not limited to a circle; it can also be other shapes such as a rectangle.

[0144] In addition, the fan body 141 has a first connection terminal 1415 at a predetermined position on the air outlet 1412 side, which is connected to the connection cable 130. The first connection terminal 1415 can be any terminal that can connect to the connection cable 130 and receive power from the power supply unit 120, and its specific structure is arbitrary.

[0145] (Installation ring)

[0146] Mounting ring 142 is an annular component for mounting fan body 141 to fan mounting hole 113. Its inner diameter is formed to be the same as or slightly larger than the outer diameter of cylindrical part 1413, so that cylindrical part 1413 can be inserted through mounting ring 142 to be mounted to fan 140.

[0147] A locking unit (not shown) is formed on the outer surface of the cylindrical portion 1413 and the inner surface of the mounting ring 142, for example, by forming a protrusion on the inner surface side of the mounting ring 142 and a recess that engages with the protrusion on the outer surface side of the cylindrical portion 1413.

[0148] When installing the fan 140 onto the garment body 110, such as Figure 3 As shown, the air delivery portion 1412 of the fan 140 is inserted through the outer surface of the garment body 110 into the fan mounting hole 113, and the flange portion 1414 contacts the portion around the fan mounting hole 113 of the garment body 110. Next, the mounting ring 142 is inserted from the inner surface of the garment body 110 to the outer side of the tubular portion 1413, thereby clamping the portion around the fan mounting hole 113 of the sheet member S forming the garment body 110 and the portion around the hole of the mounting hole reinforcement member by the flange portion 1414 and the mounting ring 142, and in this state, the mounting ring 142 is fixed to the fan body 141 by the locking unit.

[0149] Therefore, the fan 140 can be inserted into the fan mounting hole 113 to fix it to the garment body 110. In addition, the method of mounting the fan 140 in the fan mounting hole 113 is not limited to this, and various known means such as screwing the mounting ring 142 into the threaded portion formed in the cylindrical portion 1413 of the fan 140 can also be selected.

[0150] [Effects of the Implementation Method]

[0151] In existing clothing, including garments with sputtered titanium, direct sunlight through the fabric can cause skin temperature to rise, particularly in underwear. Figure 2B As shown, the fan-equipped garment 100 of this embodiment is a piece of clothing composed of a sheet-like component S with a fabric 2 that has high reflectivity or absorbency of sunlight and an air-filled heat insulation layer 3. Therefore, the fabric 2 reflects or absorbs sunlight, and air circulates between the heat insulation layer 3 and the skin or underwear, inhibiting heat from reaching the skin or underwear. Thus, even when the outside air temperature is higher than the skin temperature, the heat insulation layer 3 blocks heat, suppressing the rise in skin temperature, and effectively functioning as the fan-equipped garment 100.

[0152] Furthermore, the fabric 2 of the fan-equipped garment 100 in this embodiment can also be a blend of cotton and polyester, and the insulation layer 3 will not wear out due to friction with the underwear. In addition, since the insulation layer 3 can be simply added to existing clothing, it can be manufactured at a relatively low cost.

[0153] [Second Implementation]

[0154] based on Figures 4A-5B The fan-equipped garment 100A of the second embodiment will now be described. Furthermore, for parts identical to those in the fan-equipped garment 100 of the first embodiment, the same reference numerals will be used, and descriptions will be omitted.

[0155] Figure 4A This is an enlarged front view of the fan-equipped garment 100A according to the second embodiment. Figure 4B yes Figure 4A A sectional view of the IVB-IVB section.

[0156] like Figure 4B As shown, the fan-equipped garment 100A of the second embodiment is a three-layer garment made of a sheet component S, which has a fabric 2, a heat insulation layer 3, and a lining 4 made of a material that does not easily absorb sweat.

[0157] (Inner filling)

[0158] The lining 4 is the fabric on the back side of the heat insulation layer 3 that forms the main body of the garment 110A. It is preferably made of polyester with low sweat absorption and high solar absorption, but it is not limited to this. Materials that can be used as linings for ordinary clothes can be used appropriately.

[0159] Furthermore, in garments with a three-layer structure as described above, where the sheet component S and the main body 110A are made of down, it is necessary to prevent the middle layer, i.e., the insulation layer 3, from shifting. Therefore, it is not as... Figure 4A and Figure 4B As shown, it is merely a stitching, while the preferred method is... Figure 5A and Figure 5B As shown, the layers are stitched together in a horizontal or vertical direction at an average interval of 10 cm using stitching. Along with this, the fan mounting hole 113A and the fan 140A mounted on the fan-equipped garment 100A are also formed in a generally rectangular shape.

[0160] [Effects of the Implementation Method]

[0161] According to the second embodiment, the fan-equipped garment 100A is a three-layer garment consisting of a sheet-like component S having a fabric 2, a heat insulation layer 3, and a lining 4 in sequence from the surface. Therefore, sunlight that is not completely blocked by the outer layer, i.e. the fabric 2, is reflected or absorbed by the inner layer, i.e. the lining 4.

[0162] Therefore, the fan-cooled garment 100A can further suppress the rise in skin temperature, thus functioning more effectively as a fan-cooled garment.

[0163] [Third Implementation]

[0164] based on Figures 6-10B The fan-equipped garment 100B of the third embodiment will be described. Furthermore, for parts identical to those in the fan-equipped garment 100 of the first embodiment, the same reference numerals will be used, and descriptions will be omitted.

[0165] The fan-equipped garment 100B of the third embodiment includes a fan mounting hole cover 1131 and an air exhaust adjustment mechanism 1143.

[0166] [Fan mounting hole cover]

[0167] For example, Figure 6 As shown, the fan mounting hole cover 1131 is a cover used to block the fan mounting hole 113 when the fan 140 is not installed in the fan mounting hole 113 to prevent external air from flowing into the garment body 110B. It includes a cover portion 1131a, a fixing portion 1131b extending and protruding from the cover portion 1131a to one side, and a disassembly portion 1131c extending and protruding to the other side.

[0168] (Structure of the fan mounting hole cover)

[0169] The cover 1131a may be made of a low-breathability material such as polyester, and may block the fan mounting hole 113. In addition, similar to the main body of the garment 110B, the cover 1131a may also have a multi-layered structure similar to the sheet-like part S.

[0170] The fixing part 1131b is a component that extends and protrudes from the cover part 1131a to one side. By being fixed to the back side near the fan mounting hole 113, the fan mounting hole cover 1131 can be prevented from being lost.

[0171] The detachable part 1131c is a component that extends and protrudes from the cover part 1131a to the other side. For example, it is attached with a hook and loop fastener. This hook and loop fastener can be detached from the hook and loop fastener attached near the fan mounting hole 113. This allows the cover part 1131a to cover the fan mounting hole 113 inside the garment body 110B, so that it functions as a fan mounting hole cover 1131 when the fan 140 is not installed.

[0172] Furthermore, as described above, when the insulation layer 3 is made of down, the cover 1131a is preferably also formed in a generally rectangular shape.

[0173] Alternatively, the fan mounting hole cover 1131 can be a structure that is independent of the garment body 110B without the fixing part 1131b. Alternatively, a storage bag can be provided on the garment body 110B to store the garment.

[0174] [Air Exhaust Adjustment Mechanism]

[0175] The air exhaust adjustment mechanism 1143 is a mechanism for adjusting the air exhaust resistance of the air exhaust section 114, and its structure varies depending on where the air exhaust section 114 is located on the garment body 110B.

[0176] (Collar air venting adjustment mechanism)

[0177] When the collar air vent 1141 is provided, for example, Figure 7A and Figure 7B As shown, the air exhaust adjustment mechanism 1143 includes: a collar adjustment strap 1143a of appropriate length, one end of which is fixed to the inner surface of the fabric of the garment body 110B and the lining 4B around the area corresponding to the shoulder blades below the collar, and is arranged across the left and right front and back sections; and multiple buttonholes 1143b formed at the ends of the front section. At this time, if... Figure 7AAs shown, by securing the collar adjustment strap 1143a with the upper buttonhole 1143b, the upper part of the garment body 110B floats off the body, reducing the airflow resistance of the collar air vent 1141. Furthermore, if... Figure 7B When the collar adjustment strap 1143a is fixed with the lower buttonhole 1143b as shown, the upper part of the garment body 110B is close to the body, and the air exhaust resistance of the collar air exhaust section 1141 becomes stronger.

[0178] In addition, Figure 7A and Figure 7B The illustration shows a case where two buttonholes 1143b are provided on the collar adjustment strap 1143a, but it is not limited to this. Three or more buttonholes 1143b can also be provided, so that the air exhaust resistance of the collar air exhaust section 1141 can be adjusted in multiple stages.

[0179] Alternatively, a hook-and-loop fastener can be used instead of a button for fastening, thereby allowing for continuous adjustment of the air discharge resistance of the collar air vent 1141.

[0180] (Sleeve air venting adjustment mechanism)

[0181] Furthermore, when the sleeve air vent 1142 is provided, the air vent adjustment mechanism 1143 only needs to be a mechanism capable of adjusting the diameter of the cuff, for example, such as... Figure 8A and Figure 8B As shown, a zipper 1143c that can be opened and closed is provided at or near the cuff, in a cutout parallel to the arm, and the air resistance of the air flowing out from the sleeve can be adjusted by adjusting the degree of the opening.

[0182] In addition, for example, Figure 8C As shown, the opening degree of the sleeve air exhaust section 1142 and the air exhaust resistance of the air flowing to the outside can also be adjusted by setting the sleeve adjustment band 1143d with the hook-and-loop fastener on the outside of the cuff and adjusting the winding strength.

[0183] In addition, for example, Figure 8D As shown, a separate cylindrical woven material, namely rib 1143e, can also be provided, which can be attached and detached from the cuff by means of hook and loop fasteners to adjust the airflow resistance of the air flowing out of the sleeve.

[0184] Furthermore, in the case of rib 1143e, such as Figure 8E As shown, a plastic cylinder 1144 covered by fabric can also be embedded in the rib 1143e as a sealing unit for the sleeve air exhaust portion 1142, thereby completely sealing off the sleeve air exhaust portion 1142.

[0185] Furthermore, if the circumference of the sleeve air vent 1142 can be adjusted to more than 130% of the minimum length, a more sufficient amount of air can be vented, which is therefore preferable.

[0186] (Air exhaust adjustment mechanism in the protective cover)

[0187] In addition, such as Figure 9 As shown, when a protective cover 117 covering the wearer's head from around the neck is provided in the part around the collar of the garment body 110B, a wide mesh strip 1143f with a length shorter than the inner length of the head of the protective cover 117 may also be provided in its lining.

[0188] By installing such a belt 1143f, since the protective cover 117 is lifted, a gap is formed between the lining of the protective cover 117 and the top, reducing the resistance to air discharge.

[0189] (Air venting adjustment mechanism in the shoulder)

[0190] Alternatively, you can set Figure 10A The floating shoulder plate 1143g, which has a gently curved section with an insertion part at both ends, as shown, has an insertion part (not shown) through which it can be inserted on the front and back of the garment body 110B.

[0191] like Figure 10B As shown, the garment body 110B can be connected to the shoulder plate 1143g by inserting the insertion part of the shoulder plate 1143g into the insertion part. If such a garment body 110B is worn, the wearer's shoulder comes into contact with the shoulder plate 1143g, so the upper part of the garment body 110B floats up from the body and forms a gap, and the air exhaust resistance of the collar air exhaust part 1141 is reduced.

[0192] [Effects of the Implementation Method]

[0193] In existing fan-equipped clothing, outside air flows into the garment body through the air exhaust section. Therefore, on days with low outside air temperatures, such as winter, the influx of outside air, which is colder than skin temperature, causes a drop in skin temperature, making fan-equipped clothing unsuitable.

[0194] However, the fan-equipped garment 100B of this embodiment includes a fan mounting hole cover 1131 that blocks the fan mounting hole 113, and an air discharge adjustment mechanism 1143 that adjusts the opening degree of the air discharge section 114 and the air discharge resistance, thus preventing external air from flowing into the fan-equipped garment 100B. Therefore, the fan-equipped garment 100B can be worn comfortably even on days with low external air temperature, such as in winter.

[0195] [Fourth Implementation]

[0196] based on Figures 11A-11C The fan-equipped garment 100C of the fourth embodiment will now be described. Furthermore, for parts identical to those in the fan-equipped garment 100 of the first embodiment, the same reference numerals will be used, and descriptions will be omitted.

[0197] The garment body 110C of the fourth embodiment is a coat-style garment that covers part of the wearer's torso, arms, and legs. Since the garment body 110 of Embodiment 1 is a jacket-style garment that covers the wearer's torso and arms, an air leakage prevention unit 112 can be provided at the lower part of the garment body 110. However, since the garment body 110C of the fourth embodiment is long enough to cover part of the wearer's legs, the appearance is not good when an air leakage prevention unit 112 is provided at the hem. In addition, the wearer finds it difficult to move.

[0198] Therefore, in the garment body 110C of the fourth embodiment, as Figure 11A As shown, an inner hem 112Ca, which serves as an air leakage prevention unit 112C, is provided at the waist area of ​​the wearer.

[0199] In this way, the appearance and ease of movement of the main garment 110C, which is a coat-style garment, remain unchanged. Like the main garments 110 to 110B, it can prevent external air from flowing in from below the air leakage prevention unit 112C, and form an airflow path in such a way that the external air obtained from the fan 140 is discharged from the air exhaust section 114, which can improve the cooling effect on the upper body of the wearer.

[0200] Furthermore, the air leakage prevention unit 112C in the main body of the coat-style garment 110C is not limited to the inner hem 112Ca, such as... Figure 11B As shown, multiple wheel-shaped insertion parts 112Cb can also be provided on the back side of the garment body 110C. By inserting a cylindrical body 112Cc made of low-density sponge tubes or the like, the gap between the garment body 110C and the wearer's waist can be eliminated.

[0201] Alternatively, at this time, the insertion part 112Cb can be omitted on the inside, and the tubular body 112Cc can be directly sewn to the garment body 110C.

[0202] In addition, such as Figure 11C As shown, the stitching of the fabric 2, insulation layer 3C and lining 4 using the quilting stitch can also be done horizontally only, and the shape of the garment body 110C can be changed by thickening the insulation layer 3C near the waist and reducing the gap between the waist and the lining 4.

[0203] [Other variations]

[0204] In the above embodiments, the color of the garment body 110 is not particularly limited, but it is preferred that the fabric 2 is light-colored and the lining 4 is dark-colored. By designing the fabric 2 to be light-colored, the ease of sunlight reflection can be further improved, and by designing the lining 4 to be dark-colored, the ease of sunlight absorption can be further improved.

[0205] Furthermore, considering the wavelength distribution of sunlight, the material of the main body 110 is preferably designed such that the fabric 2 is made of a material with high reflectivity and the lining 4 is made of a material with high absorptivity. In addition, the sheet component S is illustrated with a structure having fabric 2 and heat insulation layer 3 and a structure having fabric 2, heat insulation layer 3 and lining 4, but it is not limited to these and may also have a structure with more layers.

[0206] In addition to the above implementation methods, the specific details of the structure can of course be modified as appropriate.

[0207] Industrial availability

[0208] This invention can be used in the main body of a fan-equipped garment and in the garment itself, which has strong heat insulation effect, can block sunlight, and can effectively perform its function.
