[0002] As an integral part of clothing, the design, shape, size, and placement of pockets can all affect the overall aesthetics of an garment. A well-designed pocket can add depth and dimension to an outfit, making it more stylish and attractive.

[0003] The existing garment pocket seam structure includes an outer fabric, a lining fabric, and a garment piece. The outer and lining fabrics are sewn together along their sides and bottom edge using a first stitch, allowing the edge of the lining fabric to protrude beyond the outer edge of the outer fabric. A second stitch then sews the protruding edge of the lining fabric to the garment piece, forming the pocket. Finally, the top edges of the outer and lining fabrics are sewn together. However, this method has several drawbacks. The outer fabric, being directly exposed to the outside of the pocket, is susceptible to friction and tearing, and is typically thicker. The lining fabric, located inside the pocket, is thinner. Sewing the edge of the lining fabric to the garment piece results in insufficient seam strength, making the seam prone to tearing. Furthermore, sewing the protruding edge of the lining fabric to the garment piece to form the pocket is inconvenient due to its narrow width, and the exposed stitches negatively impact the overall seam quality.

[0004] Therefore, existing technologies still need to be improved and enhanced. Utility Model Content

When a component is referred to as being "connected to" another component, it can be directly connected to the other component or may have an intervening component present.

[0024] It should also be noted that the directional terms such as left, right, up, and down in the embodiments of this utility model are only relative concepts or are based on the normal use state of the product, and should not be considered as restrictive.

[0025] As an integral part of clothing, the design, shape, size, and placement of pockets can all affect the overall aesthetics of an garment. A well-designed pocket can add depth and dimension to an outfit, making it more stylish and attractive.

[0026] The existing garment pocket seam structure includes an outer fabric, a lining fabric, and a garment piece. The outer and lining fabrics are sewn together along their sides and bottom edge using a first stitch, allowing the edge of the lining fabric to protrude beyond the outer edge of the outer fabric. A second stitch then sews the protruding edge of the lining fabric to the garment piece, forming the pocket. Finally, the top edges of the outer and lining fabrics are sewn together. However, this method has several drawbacks. The outer fabric, being directly exposed to the outside of the pocket, is susceptible to friction and tearing, and is typically thicker. The lining fabric, located inside the pocket, is thinner. Sewing the edge of the lining fabric to the garment piece results in insufficient seam strength, making the seam prone to tearing. Furthermore, sewing the protruding edge of the lining fabric to the garment piece to form the pocket is inconvenient due to its narrow width, and the exposed stitches negatively impact the overall seam quality.

[0027] In view of the shortcomings of the prior art, this utility model provides a stitching structure for a garment pocket. Please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 1 - Figure 4The garment includes an outer fabric 1, a lining fabric 2, and a garment piece 3. The lower edge and side edges of the outer fabric 1 are folded to the back and sewn onto the garment piece 3 along a first seam 11. The lower edge and side edges of the lining fabric 2 are folded to the front and sewn onto the garment piece 3 along a second seam 21 and the first folded edge 12 of the outer fabric 1. The first seam 11 is located outside the second seam 21. The upper edge of the outer fabric 1 and the upper edge of the lining fabric 2 are sewn together by a third seam 4. In this invention, the two sides and the bottom edge of the outer fabric 1 are first sewn to the garment piece 3 using the first seam 11. Then, the two sides and the bottom edge of the lining fabric 2, as well as the first folded edge 12 of the outer fabric 1, are sewn to the garment piece 3 using the second seam 21. Finally, the top edge of the outer fabric 1 and the top edge of the lining fabric 2 are sewn together. By adopting the above-mentioned seam structure, the strength of the pocket seam is improved, and the problems of exposed edges of the lining fabric 2 and exposed seam stitches are avoided, ensuring the stability and aesthetics of the pocket seam.

[0028] Furthermore, the fold lines of the lower edge and side edges of the outer fabric 1 coincide with the first seam 11, and the fold lines of the lower edge and side edges of the lining fabric 2 coincide with the second seam 21. In this embodiment, the outer fabric 1 is sewn onto the garment piece 3 along the fold lines of the lower edge and side edges of the outer fabric 1 using the first seam 11, thus preventing the first seam 11 from being exposed. The first folded edges 12 of the lining fabric 2 and the outer fabric 1 are sewn onto one piece along the fold lines of the lower edge and side edges of the lining fabric 2 using the second seam 21, with the first seam 11 located outside the second seam 21. This improves the seam strength between the lining fabric 2 and the garment piece 3, preventing tearing at the seam, and also conceals the stitching of the second seam 21 with the outer fabric 1, preventing the stitching from being exposed and improving the aesthetics of the seam.

[0029] Furthermore, the upper edge of the outer fabric 1 is higher than the upper edge of the lining fabric 2. The upper edge of the lining fabric 2 is folded towards its front side, and the fold line of the upper edge of the lining fabric 2 coincides with the third seam 4. The upper edge of the outer fabric 1 is folded towards its back side to form a second folded edge 13, and the height of the upper edge of the second folded edge 13 is higher than the height of the third seam 4. In this embodiment, the upper edges of the lining fabric 2 and the outer fabric 1 are folded together. The second folded edge 13 of the lining fabric 2 and the outer fabric 1 is sewn together by a third seam 4, and the third seam 4 is lower than the upper edge of the second folded edge 13. On the one hand, the outer fabric 1 covers the third stitch, preventing the stitch from being exposed and affecting the aesthetics of the pocket seam. On the other hand, the pocket opening is a part that is frequently in contact with the outside world and is easily affected by friction, wear and stains. At the same time, when the user puts items into the pocket or takes items out of the pocket, the user's hands often rub against the pocket opening. The upper edge of the second folded edge 13 is higher than the fold line of the upper edge of the lining fabric 2, which is equivalent to reinforcing the edge of the pocket and providing extra protection for the upper edge of the lining fabric 2. The second folded edge 13 of the outer fabric 1, which is folded inward, can block some of the external friction and stains, reduce the possibility of damage and dirt on the edge of the lining fabric 2, and extend the service life of the pocket. Furthermore, the outer fabric 1 is thicker than the lining fabric 2. The upper edge of the outer fabric 1 is folded inward at the bag opening, allowing the shape of the bag opening to be shaped according to design requirements, such as creating a certain arc or straight line. When the user puts their hand into or takes out items from the pocket, the edge of the outer fabric 1 can better conform to the body's movements, reducing friction and obstruction to the hand, thus improving the practicality and comfort of the pocket. Moreover, when sewing the pocket, the upper edge of the outer fabric 1 being higher than the lining fabric 2 makes the sewing process easier. During sewing, the other three layers of the outer fabric 1 and lining fabric 2 are sewn together first, and the upper edge is finished last. The excess part of the outer fabric 1 can be used as an operational allowance, namely the second folded edge 13, which facilitates the smooth sewing of the lining fabric 2 onto the outer fabric 1. It also allows for fine finishing of the upper edge of the pocket, such as folding and topstitching, making the pocket more refined. It should be noted that in this application, the lower edge and side edges of the outer fabric 1 are first folded over and sewn onto the garment piece 3, then the lower edge and side edges of the lining fabric 2 are folded over and sewn onto the garment piece 3, and finally the upper edge of the outer fabric 1 and the upper edge of the lining fabric 2 are sewn together. When the upper edges of the outer fabric 1 and the upper edges of the lining fabric 2 are folded over and sewn together, the third seam 4 also sews the folded portions of the outer fabric 1 and the lining fabric 2 near the bag opening on both sides. Therefore, the appendix in this application... Figure 1 This is a cross-sectional schematic diagram of the area located below the second folded edge 13 and above the lower edge folded edge of the lining fabric 2.

[0030] Furthermore, the width of the upper edge of the fabric 1 folded towards its back is 1cm-3cm; that is, the width of the second folded edge 13 is 1cm-3cm. Preferably, the width of the second folded edge 13 is 2cm. If the width of the second folded edge 13 is too large, it will cause the pocket opening to appear bulky and uneven, affecting the overall refinement and aesthetics of the garment. It will also reduce the effective width of the pocket opening, restricting the user's hand movement space when taking out or putting in items, especially for larger or thicker items, making it difficult to put in or take out the pocket. If the width of the second folded edge 13 is too small, it means that the reinforcement at the pocket opening is insufficient. In daily use, especially when frequently putting in or putting in items or when the pocket bears a certain weight, the opening is prone to tearing or damage, reducing the durability of the pocket. At the same time, a narrower second folded edge 13 cannot provide sufficient support at the pocket opening, making the pocket opening prone to collapse, lacking a firm feel, and affecting the overall shape and user experience of the pocket.

[0031] Further, the width of the lower edge of the third seam 4 and the second folded edge 13 is 0.5cm-1.2cm. The fold width of the lower edge and side edges of the outer fabric 1 and the fold width of the lower edge and side edges of the lining fabric 2 are all 0.5cm-1.2cm. Preferably, the width of the lower edge of the third seam 4 and the second folded edge 13, the fold width of the lower edge and side edges of the outer fabric 1, and the fold width of the lower edge and side edges of the lining fabric 2 are 1cm, that is, the width of the seam allowance is 1cm. By limiting the width of the seam allowance, it is avoided that the seam allowance is too large, which would cause material waste and make the pocket of the garment too heavy. It is also avoided that the seam allowance is too small, which would result in insufficient strength at the seam and that the seam allowance is prone to curling and deformation, affecting the appearance of the pocket.

[0032] In summary, the present invention provides a garment pocket seam structure comprising an outer fabric, a lining fabric, and a garment piece. The lower edge and side edges of the outer fabric are folded towards the back and sewn onto the garment piece along a first seam. The lower edge and side edges of the lining fabric are folded towards the front and sewn onto the garment piece along a second seam and the first folded edge of the outer fabric. The first seam is located outside the second seam. The upper edges of the outer fabric and the upper edges of the lining fabric are sewn together by a third seam. In this invention, the side edges and lower edge of the outer fabric are first sewn onto the garment piece via the first seam, then the side edges and lower edge of the lining fabric, as well as the first folded edge of the outer fabric, are sewn onto the garment piece via the second seam, and finally the upper edges of the outer fabric and the upper edges of the lining fabric are sewn together. This seam structure improves the strength of the pocket seam, avoids exposed edges of the lining fabric and exposed seam stitches, and ensures the stability and aesthetics of the pocket seam.
