Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of clothing technology, and in particular to a moisture-wicking and breathable fabric and garment. Background Technology
[0002] The moisture-wicking and breathability of clothing is an important indicator of its comfort and health benefits. Good moisture-wicking and breathability means that when the body sweats, the fabric can quickly absorb the sweat and transfer the water vapor to the outside of the fabric through micropores or other structures, preventing sweat from accumulating on the skin and thus keeping the skin dry and comfortable.
[0003] like Figure 1 As shown, a self-opening composite material is available, comprising a fabric layer 1', a cut 2', and a composite layer assembly 3'. The cut 2' and the composite layer assembly 3' are placed on the fabric layer 1'. The cut 2' is an arc and / or a V-shaped line. The composite layer assembly 3' includes a hydrophilic functional layer, a hydrophobic functional layer, and an adhesive film. The hydrophilic functional layer has a higher moisture absorption rate than ordinary materials, while the hydrophobic functional layer has a lower moisture absorption rate. The adhesive film is located between the hydrophilic and hydrophobic functional layers, thus bonding the composite layer assembly 3' together. The composite layer assembly 3' is positioned at the cut 2' and correspondingly covers region I on the fabric layer 1' located to the side of the cut 2', and may even further cover region II.
[0004] When the fabric layer 1' at position 3' of the composite layer group is in a dry environment, the cut 2' is closed. When the fabric layer 1' at position 3' of the composite layer group is in a humid environment, the hydrophilic functional layer in the composite layer group 3' absorbs moisture and expands and elongates, causing the cut 2' to open, increasing the contact area between the skin and the outside air, which is conducive to sweat evaporation and heat dissipation.
[0005] However, composite layer 3' covers the entire area I. Due to the shape of the hydrophilic functional layer within area I, the expansion force of this part of the hydrophilic functional layer is scattered and inconsistent after moisture absorption. This causes area I of fabric layer 1' to easily bulge into a semi-bowl shape when the cut 2' is opened, resulting in a poor appearance. When composite layer 3' further covers area II, area II of fabric layer 1' also exhibits unevenness after moisture absorption, affecting the appearance. This situation is particularly noticeable when the expansion force of the hydrophilic functional layer after moisture absorption is large. However, if the expansion force after moisture absorption is too small, it can easily lead to the failure of the cut to open, thus failing to achieve the purpose of breathability. The magnitude of the expansion force of the hydrophilic functional layer after moisture absorption is affected by its material and thickness. Therefore, to ensure the appearance and guarantee the cut function, the selection of the material and the thickness of the hydrophilic functional layer are subject to high requirements when preparing this composite material.
[0006] In addition, the direction of the expansion force after moisture absorption is also affected. If the thickness of the hydrophilic functional layer is uneven, the direction of the opening of the corresponding fabric layer 1'Ⅰ area after moisture absorption is difficult to control, which can easily make the cuts look messy and irregular, resulting in a poor appearance. Therefore, the uniformity of the thickness of the hydrophilic functional layer is also required during manufacturing. Utility Model Content
[0007] The purpose of this invention is to provide a moisture-wicking and breathable fabric and garment, whose movable flaps have a controllable lifting direction and a better appearance.
[0008] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:
[0009] A moisture-wicking and breathable fabric includes a base layer and a functional unit. The base layer has a non-closed curved slit that penetrates the base layer along its thickness, forming a movable flap. The movable flap has an interconnected movable edge and a fixed edge. The shape of the movable edge corresponds to the shape of the slit, and the fixed edge connects the movable flap to the base layer. The functional unit includes a functional adhesive layer that avoids the slit. This functional adhesive layer is layered and bonded to the base layer, and the two layers have different moisture absorption expansion rates. The functional adhesive layer includes a first adhesive strip located on the movable flap, with at least a portion of the strip away from the fixed edge.
[0010] Furthermore, the functional adhesive layer does not completely cover the active page.
[0011] Furthermore, the length direction of the first adhesive strip is perpendicular to the length direction of the fixed side.
[0012] Furthermore, the functional adhesive layer also includes a second adhesive strip, which is disposed on the active page along the active edge and / or along the fixed edge.
[0013] Furthermore, the functional adhesive layer includes two or more first adhesive strips, which are spaced apart and have the same length direction, and the second adhesive strip connects the first adhesive strips together.
[0014] Furthermore, the side of the functional adhesive layer corresponding to the fixed edge is the connecting side, and the connecting side is located on the active page or extends out of the active page.
[0015] Furthermore, the distance L between the connecting side contour line and the fixed edge is 0.5 to 1 mm; the thickness of the functional adhesive layer is 0.13 to 0.17 mm.
[0016] Furthermore, both the slit and the functional adhesive layer are symmetrically arranged with the vertical line of the fixed edge as the center line; the functional unit also includes an adhesive layer, which is located between the fabric base layer and the functional adhesive layer and avoids the slit, the shape of the adhesive layer is consistent with the shape of the functional adhesive layer, and the fabric base layer and the functional adhesive layer are bonded and fixed to each other through the adhesive layer.
[0017] A garment made from the aforementioned moisture-wicking and breathable fabric.
[0018] Furthermore, the garment includes a hat body made of the moisture-wicking and breathable fabric, with the slits evenly distributed along the sides of the hat body.
[0019] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0020] 1. This utility model utilizes a functional adhesive layer to control the opening of the movable flap for ventilation. The functional adhesive layer includes a first adhesive strip. Through the first adhesive strip, the adhesive force of the functional adhesive layer can be concentrated in the length direction of the first adhesive strip, weakening the adhesive force in other directions. This controls the direction of the expansion force of the functional adhesive layer after absorbing moisture, thereby controlling the lifting direction of the movable flap. It can reduce the influence of factors such as the material and thickness uniformity of the first adhesive strip on the lifting direction of the movable flap, and improve the appearance after moisture absorption.
[0021] 2. The lifting direction of the movable page in this utility model is controllable. Therefore, even if the thickness of each first adhesive strip is different or the thickness uniformity is insufficient, the lifting direction of the corresponding movable page is basically the same when the direction of each first adhesive strip is consistent. This is beneficial to improving the neatness of the movable page lifting after moisture absorption, obtaining a better appearance effect, and also to reducing the manufacturing difficulty and requirements of the functional adhesive layer.

Detailed Implementation
[0037] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0038] Example 1
[0039] like Figures 1-8As shown, this utility model discloses a moisture-wicking and breathable fabric, including a fabric base layer 100 and a functional unit 200. The fabric base layer 100 has non-closed curved slits 110, such as arc-shaped, U-shaped, and V-shaped slits. These slits 110 penetrate the fabric base layer 100 along its thickness direction, forming a movable flap 120 and corresponding breathable slits on the fabric base layer 100. The movable flap 120 has an interconnected movable edge 121 and a fixed edge 122. The shape of the movable edge 121 corresponds to the shape of the slits 110, and the fixed edge 122 connects the movable flap 121 to the fabric base layer 100. The functional unit 200 includes a functional adhesive layer 210 that avoids the slits 110. The functional adhesive layer 210 is layered and bonded to the fabric base layer 100, and the two have different moisture absorption expansion rates. Most of the functional adhesive layer 210 is located on the movable flap 120 and avoids the slits 110, thus preventing interference with the opening and closing of the movable flap 120.
[0040] In the unmoisturized state, the movable flap 120 flattens and closes the breathable cut on the fabric base layer 100. However, in the moisture-absorbing state, due to the difference in the moisture absorption expansion rate between the functional adhesive layer 210 and the fabric base layer 100, the volumes of the functional adhesive layer 210 and the fabric base layer 100 change after moisture absorption, and the degree of change is different. Utilizing the volume difference between the two after moisture absorption, the movable flap 120 can be lifted to allow ventilation.
[0041] The functional adhesive layer 210 includes a first adhesive strip 211, which is located on the movable page 120, and at least a portion of the first adhesive strip 211 is away from the fixed edge 122. Through the first adhesive strip 211, the adhesive force of the functional adhesive layer 210, as well as its corresponding moisture absorption expansion force and shrinkage force after moisture dissipation, can be concentrated along the length direction of the first adhesive strip 211, thereby weakening the adhesive force of the functional adhesive layer 210 in other directions. This allows the movable page 120 to be controlled and guided to lift along the length direction of the first adhesive strip 211 after moisture absorption, achieving the purpose of controlling the lifting direction of the movable page 120 and obtaining a better appearance effect.
[0042] The functional adhesive layer 210 does not completely cover the active page 120, thus leaving a partially uncoated area on one side of the active page 120 that overlaps with the functional adhesive layer 210. The uncoated area is usually located on both sides of the first adhesive strip 211 to weaken the adhesive force.
[0043] Since the lifting direction of the movable page 120 is mainly controlled by the length direction of the first adhesive strip 211, even when the first adhesive strip 211 has a large moisture absorption expansion force due to thickness or material effects, or when the thickness uniformity of the first adhesive strip 211 is insufficient, the movable page 120 can still maintain a good appearance after moisture absorption. It is evident that the designed first adhesive strip 211 can reduce the influence of factors such as the material and thickness uniformity of the functional adhesive layer 210 on the lifting direction of the movable page 120, which helps to reduce the manufacturing difficulty and requirements of the functional adhesive layer 210 and broadens the selection range of adhesive materials used in the functional adhesive layer 210. Furthermore, when the direction of the first adhesive strip 211 of each functional unit 200 is consistent, even if the thickness of each first adhesive strip 211 differs or the thickness uniformity is insufficient, the lifting direction of the corresponding movable page 120 is basically the same, resulting in a neat arrangement and good appearance of the movable pages 120 after moisture absorption.
[0044] Preferably, the length direction of the first adhesive strip 211 intersects with or is even perpendicular to the length direction of the fixed edge 122, thereby reducing the adhesive force required to open and close the movable page 120, which is beneficial for making the functional adhesive layer 210 thinner. Furthermore, the functional adhesive layer 210 also includes a second adhesive strip 212. For example... Figures 9-13 As shown, the second adhesive strip 212 can be installed along the movable edge 121 on the movable page 120, or along the fixed edge 122, or simultaneously along both the movable edge 121 and the fixed edge 122. The second adhesive strip 212 provides support, preventing the portions of the movable page 120 located on either side of the first adhesive strip 211 from curling up or wrinkling in directions other than the length of the first adhesive strip 211 after moisture absorption.
[0045] Multiple functional units 200 and slits 110 are provided, each corresponding to the other. Each functional adhesive layer 210 includes two or more first adhesive strips 211. On any functional adhesive layer 210, the first adhesive strips 211 are spaced apart and have the same length direction to support the movable page 120. The ends of each first adhesive strip 211 are connected to a second adhesive strip 212. The second adhesive strips 212 connect the first adhesive strips 211 together, preventing wrinkling of the movable page 120 located between the first adhesive strips 211. The first adhesive strips 211 and the second adhesive strips 212 are preferably integrally formed and have the same thickness. The entire functional adhesive layer 210 and the slits 110 forming the movable page 120 are symmetrically arranged with the vertical line of the fixed edge 122 as the center line to ensure that the movable page 120 is subjected to uniform force.
[0046] Define the side of the functional adhesive layer 210 corresponding to the fixing edge 122 as the connecting side 213, such as Figures 12-13As shown, the connecting side 213 is located on or extends from the movable page 120. When the connecting side 213 is located on the movable page 120, the movable page 120 has a non-adhesive area between the connecting side 213 and the fixed edge 122, making it easier for the movable page 120 to lift after absorbing moisture. When the connecting side 213 extends from the movable page 120, the functional adhesive layer 210 provides stronger support, making it less likely for the movable page 120 to collapse after being lifted. In either case, the distance L between the outline of the connecting side 213 and the fixed edge 122 is set between 0.5 and 1 mm, preferably 1 mm.
[0047] In this embodiment, the functional adhesive layer 210 is made of PUR hot melt adhesive that absorbs moisture and expands, with a moisture absorption expansion rate greater than that of the fabric base layer 100. Its thickness is 0.13–0.17 mm, or 13–17 mils. Preferably, the thickness of the functional adhesive layer 210 is set to 15 mils to balance the fabric function and the wearing comfort of the finished garment, reduce the feeling of foreign objects when wearing it, and pass the washing test, showing that it is not easily detached after washing.
[0048] When other adhesives are used to make the functional adhesive layer 210, the aforementioned functional unit 200 also includes an adhesive layer 220. The adhesive layer 220 is located between the fabric base layer 100 and the functional adhesive layer 210, and avoids the cut 110 to prevent affecting the opening and closing of the movable page 120. The shape of the adhesive layer 220 is consistent with the shape of the functional adhesive layer 210. The fabric base layer 100 and the functional adhesive layer 210 can be bonded and fixed together by the adhesive layer 220.
[0049] Example 2
[0050] Based on the above embodiment one, this utility model also discloses a garment made of the above-mentioned moisture-wicking and breathable fabric.
[0051] To ensure the flap 120 opens outwards after moisture absorption, thus enabling breathability, the functional adhesive layer 210 is positioned on the side of the fabric base layer 100 facing the skin when its moisture absorption expansion rate is greater than that of the fabric base layer 100; conversely, it is positioned on the side of the fabric base layer 100 away from the skin when its moisture absorption expansion rate is less than that of the fabric base layer 100. In this embodiment, the functional adhesive layer 210 is positioned on the side of the fabric base layer 100 facing the skin to facilitate rapid moisture absorption and allow the flap 120 to open for breathability.
[0052] This garment can be a variety of products, including tops, pants, and hats. The aforementioned functional units 200 and movable pages 120 can be evenly distributed across the entire garment, or selectively located in areas prone to sweating, such as the chest, back, and armpits. Figure 14As shown, when the garment is a hat, the garment includes a hat body 300 made of the aforementioned moisture-wicking and breathable fabric, and the aforementioned slits 110 and corresponding functional units 200 are evenly distributed on the side of the hat body 300.
