Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of clothing technology, specifically to a waistband structure. Background Technology
[0002] Existing trouser waistbands all use a snap-on design, which involves cutting the trouser body and waistband separately and then sewing them together. This creates a noticeable exposed seam that is prone to rubbing against the waist and results in a poor wearing experience. In addition, snap-on waistbands require separate cutting, ironing, splicing, and alignment. The sewing process for the waistband is complex and involves many steps, and misalignment can easily lead to twisting, resulting in high production costs. Utility Model Content
[0003] The purpose of this utility model is to address the defects and deficiencies of the existing technology by providing a waistband structure that solves at least one of the aforementioned technical problems. The waistband is designed as a continuous waistband structure, which has the advantages of a flat and skin-friendly waist surface, avoiding seam bulges, improving wearing comfort, and simplifying the manufacturing process to reduce costs.
[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is: a waistband structure, comprising: a pant body, a waistband extending from the pant body and bent into shape, and an elastic member assembled in the waistband body;
[0005] The waistband includes: a first segment extending onto the pant body; a first folded segment disposed on the side of the first segment away from the pant body; a second segment disposed on the side of the first folded segment away from the first segment and parallel to the first segment for skin contact; and a second folded segment disposed between the second segment and the pant body and corresponding to the first folded segment.
[0006] In a further embodiment of this invention, the trouser body and the waistband are cut from a single piece of fabric.
[0007] The present invention further includes: a first sewn part sewn to one end of the elastic member and located on the first bending segment, and a second sewn part sewn to the other end of the elastic member and located on the second bending segment.
[0008] The present invention is further provided that the width of the first suture portion and the second suture portion are both 0.2cm-1.0cm.
[0009] In a further embodiment of this invention, the elastic element is a flat rubber band.
[0010] After adopting the above technical solution, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: In this utility model, by extending the waistband body set on the trouser body and dividing the waistband body into two parallel segments and two corresponding bent segments, the trouser body and the waistband body are extended and connected to form a continuous waistband, which avoids arching and wavy surfaces on the waist and friction with the waist, making the waistband surface smoother and the wearing comfort better. Moreover, compared with the existing waistband, the structure and manufacturing process are simple, reducing costs. Attached Figure Description

[0015] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0016] This specific embodiment is merely an explanation of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. After reading this specification, those skilled in the art can make modifications to this embodiment without contributing any inventive element, but as long as they are within the scope of the claims of the present utility model, they are protected by patent law.
[0017] This embodiment relates to a waistband structure, referring to... Figures 1-2The system includes: pant body 100, waistband 200, and elastic element 300. The waistband 200 extends from the pant body 100 and is integrally bent and formed. This integrated waistband structure eliminates the seams and raised seam allowances found in traditional separate waistband designs, preventing chafing and skin irritation caused by arching or bulging seams. This results in a smoother waistband surface that better conforms to the natural curve of the waist, providing superior comfort. Specifically, the waistband 200 and pant body 100 are cut from a single piece of fabric, eliminating the need for separate pant and waistband pieces, aligned seam edges, and multiple stitching steps. This reduces processing steps and errors, simplifying the waistband structure, improving production efficiency, and lowering manufacturing costs. Furthermore, the one-piece design eliminates weak points between the pant body 100 and waistband 200, allowing the waistband 200 to withstand greater tensile force and reducing the risk of seam breakage.
[0018] Reference Figure 1 The waistband 200 includes a first segment 210, a first folded segment 220, a second segment 230, and a second folded segment 240. The first segment 210 extends upward and is located on the top side of the trouser body, while the second segment 230 extends downward and is located on the side of the first folded segment 220 away from the first segment 210. The first segment 210 and the second segment 230 are arranged parallel to each other, with the second segment 230 being the skin-contact surface to ensure even pressure distribution at the waist, reducing marks and tightness after prolonged wear, and avoiding localized compression of the waist caused by inconsistent curvature in traditional waistbands. The first folded segment 220 bends downward and is located on the side of the first segment 210 away from the trouser body 100, while the second folded segment 240 bends upward and is located between the second segment 230 and the trouser body 100. The two folded segments serve as a smooth transition, avoiding friction between the right-angled seams and the skin. Furthermore, the second bending segment 240 is correspondingly arranged with the first bending segment 220, jointly wrapping the end of the elastic element 300 to prevent the elastic element 300 from shifting, clumping, or curling after stretching or washing, ensuring that the elastic element 300 always stretches and contracts evenly along the waistband, maintaining consistent waistband tightness. The elastic element 300 is sewn inside the waistband 200, with two parallel segments and two bending segments forming a cavity for assembling the elastic element 300, stably accommodating it. Specifically, the elastic element 300 is a flat elastic band. The elastic band material is relatively soft, and its flat structure has a larger stress area, providing a certain degree of tightness while reducing the feeling of constriction around the waist. In other embodiments, the elastic element 300 may also be made of other materials such as spandex elastic band or elastic webbing.
[0019] In this embodiment, refer to Figure 1It also includes a first seam 250 and a second seam 260. The first seam 250 and the second seam 260 are respectively sewn onto both ends of the elastic member 300, and are located on the first bending section 220 and the second bending section 240, respectively. The two seams are used to fix the elastic member 300, preventing the elastic member 300 from shifting, clumping, or curling after stretching or washing, ensuring that the elastic member 300 always stretches and contracts evenly along the waist circumference, and maintaining a consistent waistband tightness.
[0020] Specifically, in this embodiment, both the first seam 250 and the second seam 260 are made of double needles and three threads, which can ensure the seam strength and adapt to the dynamic stretching of the fabric.
[0021] In this embodiment, the width of both the first seam 250 and the second seam 260 is 0.5cm, which increases the area at the seam between the waistband 200 fabric and the elastic element 300, resulting in high flatness and avoiding bulges due to narrow seam width, thus improving wearing comfort. In other embodiments, the width of the first seam 250 and the second seam 260 can also be 0.2cm, 0.4cm, 0.6cm, 0.8cm, 0.9cm, 1.0cm, etc., as long as the width of the first seam 250 and the second seam 260 is within the range of 0.2cm-1.0cm, without any specific limitation.
[0022] The above description is only used to illustrate the technical solution of this utility model and is not intended to limit it. Any other modifications or equivalent substitutions made by those skilled in the art to the technical solution of this utility model, as long as they do not depart from the spirit and scope of the technical solution of this utility model, should be covered within the scope of the claims of this utility model.
