Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to a shirt with an underarm stretching structure, belonging to the technical field of shirts. Background Art
[0002] A shirt is a common garment that covers the entire upper body and typically has a collar, sleeves, and buttons. While they are often worn for formal or semi-formal occasions, casual styles are also available. Shirts are made from a variety of materials, from cotton to silk, depending on the intended use and style.
[0003] Conventional shirts are typically designed for simplicity and a slim fit, but this is done for static wear. Because traditional shirts aren't cut to accommodate arm movement, especially in the underarm area, the cut and sewing of these areas often lacks additional elasticity or space. Consequently, when moving, such as raising an arm, the shirt can easily rise with movement. Utility Model Content
[0004] In view of the deficiencies in the prior art, the present invention aims to provide a shirt with an underarm stretch structure to solve the problems of the prior art.
[0005] In order to achieve the above purpose, the present invention is implemented through the following technical solutions:
[0006] A shirt with an underarm stretch structure comprises: a main body, sleeves sewn to both sides of the main body, and a stretch panel sewn just below the connection between the main body and the sleeves;
[0007] The stretch sheet is provided with a plurality of through holes, and a flexible connecting portion is provided in the middle of the through holes;
[0008] By pulling the sleeve upward, with the cooperation of the flexible connecting portion, the diameter of the through hole increases, thereby extending the length of the stretch sheet.
[0009] As a further improvement, the main body of the garment is formed by sewing a group of front pieces and back pieces, the front pieces and back pieces form sleeves on the sides, and one end of the sleeve is sewn to the sleeve.
[0010] As a further improvement, the stretch sheet is arranged at the underarm portion below the connection area between the sleeve and the main body of the garment, and covers the underarm portion.
[0011] As a further improvement, the stretch piece extends 5-10 cm from the underarm portion toward the sleeves and the main body of the garment.
[0012] As a further improvement, the width of the stretch sheet is in the range of 3-5 cm.
[0013] As a further improvement, the stretch sheet is made of elastic material.
[0014] As a further improvement, the stretch sheet includes a first layer of sheet arranged toward the outside of the main body and sleeves, a second layer of sheet arranged toward the inside of the main body and sleeves, and a third layer of sheet arranged between the first layer and the second layer, and the aperture of the through hole decreases layer by layer from the first layer to the second layer.
[0015] As a further improvement, the third layer is composed of several groups of sweat-absorbing strips attached to the first layer, and the sweat-absorbing strips are arranged in an area avoiding the flexible connecting part.
[0016] The beneficial effects of the utility model are:
[0017] The utility model provides extra space for movement by adding a stretching piece to the underarm area of the shirt. This allows more flexibility when raising the arms, effectively reducing the upward movement of clothing when wearing.
[0018] The holes in the stretching piece expand in diameter when subjected to tension (such as when raising an arm). This physical structural change increases the length of the stretching piece. The flexible connection inside the hole gives the hole this adjustable ability, making expansion and recovery more natural and smooth.
[0019] The shirt splicing stretch panel design can add more margin to the armpits, so the clothes will not move up when you raise your hands. At the same time, the through-hole design has functions such as breathability, moisture absorption and perspiration removal, and antibacterial, which effectively solve the embarrassing problems of excessive sweating, odor, sweat stains and other embarrassing problems under the armpits.
[0020] A flexible connecting portion is provided in the middle of each through hole, which plays a role in smooth transition during the stretching movement, further enhancing the ductility and flexibility of the stretching piece, and ensuring that the stretching piece can quickly adapt to changes in movement and quickly return to its original shape.
[0021] Compared to traditional non-elastic designs, the stretch panels and through-hole design provide dynamic adjustment space, allowing the shirt to adapt to more body shapes and movements. Whether it is sports or daily office work, this design can easily cope with it, improving the apparel's applicability. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0029] In the description of this utility model, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be understood to indicate or imply relative importance or implicitly specify the number of the technical features indicated. Therefore, a feature specified as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of such features. In the description of this utility model, "plurality" means two or more, unless otherwise specifically specified.
[0030] Conventional shirts are typically designed for simplicity and a slim fit, but these are designed for static use. Because traditional shirts aren't cut to accommodate arm movement, particularly in the underarm area, the cut and sewing of these areas often lack additional elasticity or space. Consequently, during movement, such as when raising an arm, the shirt can easily rise with movement. To address this issue, a shirt with an underarm stretch structure has been designed, as follows:
[0031] Reference Figure 1 As shown, a shirt with an underarm stretch structure comprises:
[0032] A main body 1, sleeves 2 sewn to both sides of the main body 1, and a stretch panel 3 sewn just below the connection between the main body 1 and the sleeves 2;
[0033] The stretch sheet 3 is provided with a plurality of through holes 31 , and a flexible connecting portion 32 is provided in the middle of the through hole 31 ;
[0034] By pulling the sleeve 2 upward, with the cooperation of the flexible connecting portion 32 , the diameter of the through hole 31 increases, thereby extending the length of the stretch sheet 3 .
[0035] By adding a stretch panel 3 to the underarm area of the shirt, additional room for movement is provided. This allows more flexibility when raising the arms, effectively reducing the clothing from riding up when worn.
[0036] The through hole 31 designed on the stretching piece 3 increases in diameter when subjected to tension (such as raising the arm). This physical structural change increases the length of the stretching piece 3. The flexible connecting portion 32 inside the through hole 31 gives the through hole 31 this adjustable ability, making expansion and recovery more natural and smooth.
[0037] A flexible connecting portion 32 is provided in the middle of each through hole 31, which plays a role in smooth transition during the stretching action, further enhancing the ductility and flexibility of the stretch sheet 3, and ensuring that the stretch sheet 3 can quickly adapt to changes in movement and quickly restore its original shape.
[0038] The through hole 31 is a quadrilateral or hexagonal structure. In this embodiment, the through hole 31 is a hexagonal structure.
[0039] In a normal state, the through hole 31 is flat and has a small aperture. When subjected to a tension state, the aperture of the through hole 31 increases and the through hole 31 becomes wider.
[0040] Because the hexagon is a stable structure commonly found in nature and engineering, such as honeycomb structures, its geometric characteristics provide maximum strength while minimizing material usage. For the stretch panels of the shirt, this means that stress is more evenly distributed when subjected to tension, reducing material fatigue and loss.
[0041] The hexagonal shape can expand and contract in multiple directions, providing better flexibility and adaptability than other shapes. When the arm is raised, the hexagonal structure can more naturally increase the diameter and extend the length of the stretch piece 3 to adapt to the corresponding movement.
[0042] At the same time, the hexagonal design can effectively cover the area and form a tight splicing structure, reducing the gaps between holes. This design helps to maintain the integrity of the garment without sacrificing the fabric density and coverage of the stretch sheet 3.
[0043] The porous structure increases the breathability of the shirt and improves wearing comfort. This weaving method can provide better air circulation and reduce the feeling of stuffiness during exercise.
[0044] The hexagonal polygonal structure can be flexibly deformed in different directions, which not only extends the length but also maintains a uniform and stable visual effect and functional performance during the change.
[0045] In other embodiments, holes in conventional geometric shapes such as circles and ellipses in the expanded state may also be used.
[0046] Compared to traditional inelastic designs, the stretch panels 3 and through-holes 31 provide dynamic adjustment, allowing the shirt to adapt to a wider range of body shapes and movements. Whether it's sports or daily office work, this design can easily cope with it, improving the apparel's applicability.
[0047] When the sleeve 2 is pulled down to restore, the diameter of the matching through hole 31 of the flexible connecting portion 32 is reduced, so that the stretch piece 3 returns to its original length.
[0048] The main body 1 is formed by sewing a group of front pieces 11 and back pieces 12 together. The front pieces 11 and back pieces 12 form sleeves 13 on the sides, and one end of the sleeve 2 is sewn to the sleeve 13.
[0049] In order to improve the aesthetics and practicality, the stretch sheet 3 is provided at the underarm portion 4 below the connection area between the sleeve 2 and the main body 1 , and covers the underarm portion 4 .
[0050] The stretch piece 3 extends 5-10 cm from the underarm portion 4 toward the sleeve 2 and the main body 1. The width of the stretch piece 3 is 3-5 cm.
[0051] The elasticity of the stretch panel 3 can be maximized by placing it in the underarm area 4, as the underarm area is the area that most needs expansion space during activities. Through its flexibility and ductility, the stretch panel 3 can provide additional space when the arm is raised or moved, reducing the pull on the main body 1.
[0052] The stretch panel 3 covers the underarm portion 4 so that it is not easily visible during normal standing or slight arm movements, thus keeping the overall appearance of the shirt neat and simple.
[0053] The appropriate extension range is required, and an extension range of 5-10 cm ensures a balance between functionality and visual impact. Extends to the loose parts of the sleeves 2 and the main body 1.
[0054] Considering the need for ventilation and comfort, the width of the stretch panel 3 is selected to be 3-5cm, which is sufficient to cover and support the stretch requirements of this area without being too wide to affect the appearance. In addition, this width helps maintain good ventilation and avoids the feeling of stuffiness caused by adding additional layers.
[0055] The stretch sheet 3 is made of elastic material.
[0056] Example 2
[0057] Reference Figure 2-4 As shown, in order to increase the elongation and air permeability, a stretch sheet is further designed in Example 1. The stretch sheet 3 includes a first layer 33 arranged toward the outside of the main body 1 and the sleeve 2, a second layer 34 arranged toward the inside of the main body 1 and the sleeve 2, and a third layer 35 arranged between the first layer 33 and the second layer 34. The first layer 33.
[0058] The diameter of the through hole 31 decreases layer by layer from the first layer 33 to the second layer 34 .
[0059] The third layer 35 is composed of a plurality of sweat-absorbing strips 36 attached to the first layer 33 . The sweat-absorbing strips 36 are arranged in an area avoiding the flexible connecting portion 32 .
[0060] The first layer 33 is the layer that directly contacts the external environment and the user's skin. It may be made of a softer elastic material to provide a comfortable touch. Its larger through-hole 31 aperture design helps preliminary air circulation and heat dissipation.
[0061] The third layer 35 is located in the middle and may be mainly responsible for connection and comprehensive functions, providing additional support and structural stability. Its through holes 31 are between the other two layers, balancing breathability and elasticity.
[0062] The second layer 34 is the layer closest to the inside and in contact with the body, and has the smallest pore size, so that it can provide support while making more subtle adjustments to ensure fit and comfort.
[0063] The decreasing pore size of each layer allows for gradual regulation of air and moisture flow, helping to control heat dissipation and thermal insulation, tailoring the garment's performance to the environment and activity. The first layer immediately releases excess heat, while the third layer neutralizes temperature gradients. The third layer 35, made of a highly absorbent material, quickly absorbs perspiration from the second layer, which comes into contact with the body, and evaporates and dries through the adjacent large-diameter holes 31 of the first layer 33.
[0064] The first and third layers 33 and 35 are made of spandex or other highly elastic fibers, which have good deformation recovery capabilities. The selected materials should not only have high elasticity, but also be wear-resistant and durable, ensuring that they can maintain their original shape after repeated stretching.
[0065] These materials also need to be durably breathable, so while they retain warmth, they can also quickly wick away excess moisture to keep you dry.
[0066] The second layer 34 is composed of a plurality of sweat-absorbing strips 36. The elastic sweat-absorbing strips 36 are made of materials such as polyester fiber or bamboo fiber, which are well-known for their good moisture absorption and can effectively absorb and evaporate sweat.
[0067] Avoiding the flexible connecting portion 32 is to ensure that the elasticity and flexibility of the area is not weakened when the body moves, while efficiently absorbing sweat at the key position to prevent stickiness.
[0068] The first layer 33 , the second layer 34 and the third layer 35 are connected by a thin adhesive layer, and the adhesive layer is staggered with the through hole 31 .
[0069] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Those skilled in the art will readily appreciate that the present invention is susceptible to various modifications and variations. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, or improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present invention shall be included within the scope of protection of the present invention.
