Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of thermal clothing, and more specifically, to a thermal vest. Background Technology
[0002] Insulating vests, a common type of thermal clothing, are typically designed to be worn over other garments to provide extra warmth. Traditional insulating vests mainly consist of an outer fabric, an insulating filling layer, and an inner lining. Their warmth primarily relies on the insulating properties of the filling material, such as down, cotton, or synthetic fibers. These materials reduce heat convection by trapping air, thus slowing heat loss from the body. Structurally, traditional vests usually feature a front-opening design, using zippers, buttons, or Velcro for closure, and are equipped with adjustable side elastic bands or straps to accommodate different body types. However, this adjustment method primarily focuses on the vest's fit and doesn't fully consider the impact of varying inner clothing thickness on comfort. When wearers need to layer thick sweaters, sweatshirts, or other layers in cold environments, the fixed size and limited adjustment range of traditional vests can cause them to feel tight on the outside, restricting freedom of movement and potentially compressing inner clothing, reducing its warmth.
[0003] Therefore, a new solution is needed to address this problem. Utility Model Content
[0004] In view of the shortcomings of the existing technology, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a warm vest.
[0005] The above-mentioned technical objective of this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution: a thermal vest, including a back, a left half, and a right half, with armholes provided between the back and the left half, and between the back and the right half. The back and the bottom of the left half, and the back and the bottom of the right half, are connected by elastic bands. A connecting strap is provided on the back, with a left insulation band and a right insulation band fixedly connected to both sides of the connecting strap. The left insulation band wraps around the outside of the left half, and the right insulation band wraps around the outside of the right half. The end of the right insulation band away from the connecting strap is detachably connected to the outside of the right half. A hook surface is provided on the inner side of the end of the left insulation band away from the connecting strap, and a fleece surface is fixedly connected to the outer side of the end of the right insulation band away from the connecting strap. The width of the fleece surface is greater than the width of the hook surface. The top of the elastic band extends to the bottom of the armhole. The widths of both the left and right insulation bands are greater than the width of the elastic band.
[0006] The present invention is further configured such that: two fixing straps are provided on the outer side of the back of the garment, one end of the fixing strap is fixedly connected to the outer side of the back of the garment, the other end of the fixing strap is detachably connected to the outer side of the back of the garment, and the connecting strap passes through the two ends of the fixing strap.
[0007] The present invention is further configured such that: the top end of the connecting strap is fixedly connected to the back of the garment, and the bottom end of the connecting strap is detachably connected to the back of the garment.
[0008] The present invention is further configured such that the connecting belt, the left insulation belt, and the right insulation belt are all woven from nylon yarn.
[0009] The present invention is further configured such that the connecting belt, the left insulation belt, and the right insulation belt are all filled with cotton filler inside.
[0010] In summary, this utility model has the following beneficial effects: the stretching and deformation of the elastic band allows the hem of the thermal vest to expand to adapt to changes in the thickness of the clothing inside the vest, while ensuring comfort and warmth when wearing it. The connecting strap, left insulation band, and right insulation band are all made of nylon yarn woven into a plain weave, which has good toughness and wear resistance, while also having a certain degree of elasticity to adapt to different body types and wearing needs.

[0014] The present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.
[0015] Example: A warm vest, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2As shown, the vest includes a back panel 1, a left half 2, and a right half 3. Armholes 4 are provided between the back panel 1 and the left half 2, and between the back panel 1 and the right half 3, allowing for arm movement. The bottom of the back panel 1 is connected to the bottom of the left half 2 and the bottom of the right half 3 via elastic bands 5. These elastic bands 5 are woven from polyester yarn, which has good elasticity. The top of the elastic band 5 extends to the bottom of the armholes 4, ensuring sufficient spacing between the left half 2 and the back panel 1, and between the right half 3 and the back panel 1, preventing the vest from feeling too tight due to thick inner clothing. The elastic design of the elastic bands 5 allows the vest to automatically adapt to inner clothing of varying thicknesses while maintaining a good fit, reducing restriction on the wearer, and preventing excessive tightness from compressing inner clothing and affecting its warmth.
[0016] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, a connecting strap 6 is provided on the outer side of the back of the garment 1. A left insulating strap 7 and a right insulating strap 8 are integrally formed on both sides of the connecting strap 6. The left insulating strap 7 wraps around the outer side of the left half 2, and the right insulating strap 8 wraps around the outer side of the right half 3. The two are detachably connected on the outer side of the right half 3. Specifically, the inner end of the left insulating strap 7 has a hook surface 9, while the outer end of the right insulating strap 8 has a loop surface 10. That is, the left insulating strap 7 and the right insulating strap 8 are detachably connected by Velcro. The width of the loop surface 10 is greater than the width of the hook surface 9 to ensure a secure connection and a wider range of adjustment. This design allows the wearer to adjust the tightness of the insulation band according to the thickness of the inner clothing, preventing the vest from feeling tight due to bulky inner clothing. At the same time, the insulation band is detachably connected to the right half 3 via a snap fastener. The length of the right insulation band 8 is shorter than the length of the left insulation band 7. Under normal conditions, the end of the right insulation band 8 that is away from the connecting band 6 is always fixed to the right half 3. When adjusting the tightness, simply pull the left insulation band 7.
[0017] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, two fixing straps 11 are also provided on the outer side of the back of the garment 1. The top end of the fixing strap 11 is sewn and fixed to the back of the garment 1, and the other end is detachably connected to the bottom outer side of the back of the garment 1 via a snap fastener. The connecting strap 6 passes between the two ends of the fixing strap 11. The function of the fixing strap 11 is to stabilize the position of the connecting strap 6 and prevent it from shifting or loosening during wear, while not affecting the adjustment function of the insulation band. The detachable end of the fixing strap 11 is located at the bottom of the back of the garment 1 to facilitate adjustment and removal of the connecting strap 6 when the wearer is wearing bulky clothing, making it difficult to reach the upper middle back area.
[0018] like Figure 1 , Figure 2As shown, the connecting strap 6, left insulation strap 7, and right insulation strap 8 are all made of nylon yarn woven into a plain weave, possessing good toughness and abrasion resistance, while also having a certain degree of elasticity to adapt to different body shapes and wearing needs. Furthermore, these straps are filled with cotton stuffing to enhance warmth and ensure effective heat retention in cold environments, compensating for the lack of warmth at the elastic band 5. The stuffing is evenly distributed, avoiding any areas being too thick or too thin that would affect the overall warmth.
[0019] In practical use, the wearer can adjust the tightness between the left insulation band 7 and the right insulation band 8 according to the thickness of the inner clothing. When the inner clothing is thick, it can be loosened appropriately to avoid the vest being too tight; when the inner clothing is thin, it can be tightened to ensure the vest fits the body and reduces heat loss. The elastic design of the elastic band 5 further enhances the vest's adaptability, allowing it to maintain comfort and warmth under different wearing conditions.

All technical solutions falling within the scope of this utility model's concept are protected. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, any improvements and modifications made without departing from the principle of this utility model should also be considered within the protection scope of this utility model.
