Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of shapewear technology, specifically to a shapewear. Background Technology

[0002] Shapewear includes shorts, tops, and bodysuits. Shorts are further categorized by waist height, such as low-waisted and high-waisted. Bodysuits consist of a top and bottom that are seamlessly integrated, typically made of elastic fabric. However, seams in these integrated garments, such as those along the sides, can easily create marks and friction discomfort when the elastic fabric is tightened. To address this, seamless shapewear has emerged, using seamless knitting machines. However, these seamless shapewear products usually use opaque materials for the leg area, failing to achieve the see-through effect of stockings. If a good see-through effect is achieved, the material is typically very thin, making it prone to snagging or tearing during wear. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a shapewear with a seamless transition between the main body and the pant legs, a smooth surface without any seams, and pant legs that are thin, see-through, not easy to snag, and have strong tear resistance.

The main body is a seamless knit structure, and the main body forms a first seam only at the connection with the crotch panel. The extended pant legs are seamlessly knitted with the main body, and the extended pant legs form a second seam only on the inner thigh. The yarn of the extended pant legs is made of double-wrapped spandex yarn, and the main body is made of elastic fabric.

[0005] Preferably, the core yarn of the spandex double-wrapped yarn is 20D-30D spandex, the inner wrapping yarn is 10D-20D nylon or polyester, and the outer wrapping yarn is 10D-20D nylon or polyester, and the spiral wrapping directions of the inner and outer wrapping yarns are opposite.

[0006] Preferably, the extended trouser legs are woven with spandex double-wrapped yarn in a weft plain knit or faux rib knit structure.

[0007] Preferably, the upper part of the second seam of the extended trouser leg is the junction of the extended trouser leg and the crotch piece.

[0008] Preferably, the first seam and the second seam are stitched together or heat-fused together.

[0009] Preferably, the main body of the underwear is connected to the crotch piece to form a waistband shorts or a jumpsuit, and the main body of the underwear, the crotch piece, and the two extended pant legs are connected to form a waistband long trousers or a body-fitting jumpsuit.

[0010] Preferably, the style of the romper or jumpsuit is briefs or boxer shorts.

[0011] Preferably, different areas of the underwear body are woven with different weaves.

[0012] Preferably, the main body of the underwear includes a cup portion, which is woven with face yarn and ground yarn in a plain knit weave, or with face yarn, ground yarn and padding yarn woven in a padding weave.

[0013] Preferably, the face yarn is a first nylon filament, the ground yarn is a nylon-spandex covered yarn, and the padding yarn is a second nylon filament; the monofilament specification of the first nylon filament is 20D-40D, the monofilament specification of the second nylon filament is 20D-30D, and the specification of the nylon-spandex covered yarn is that the outer nylon has a fineness of 15D-25D and the spandex core layer has a fineness of 30D-45D.

[0028] To make the above-mentioned features and advantages of this utility model more apparent and understandable, specific embodiments are described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings for detailed explanation. Example 1

[0029] like Figures 1-4 As shown, this embodiment provides a shapewear, including an underwear body 100, a crotch piece 300, and two extended pant legs 200. The underwear body 100 and the crotch piece 300 are connected to form a one-piece shorts. The underwear body 100, the crotch piece 300, and the two extended pant legs 200 are connected to form a shapewear one-piece long pants. The bottom of the extended pant legs 200 corresponds to below the knee.

[0030] In this embodiment, the main body 100 of the underwear is made of nylon-spandex elastic fabric. It is seamlessly knitted and then cut using a SANTONI seamless underwear machine with a needle pitch of 28 stitches / inch to obtain a seamless knitted structure. The first nylon filament is used as the face yarn and the nylon-spandex covered yarn is used as the ground yarn for partitioned knitting. The second nylon filament is used as the padding yarn in some areas. That is, different areas of the main body 100 of the underwear in this embodiment are woven with different structures.

[0031] Specifically: such as Figures 3-4 As shown, the main body of the underwear 100 is a jumpsuit with a boxer shorts style (in other examples, the shorts style can also be briefs), and is divided into the following areas: cup area 101, cup area 102, front abdomen 103, side abdomen 104, waist and back 105, buttock cup area 106, buttock area 107, and thigh area 108. The cup portion 101 is woven with face yarn and ground yarn in a plain knit stitch with added fabric, or with face yarn, ground yarn, and padding yarn in a padded fabric with added fabric. The ratio of the suspended arc to the float of the padding yarn is 1:3. The padded fabric can increase the thickness of the cup portion 101, effectively enhancing the coverage while maintaining overall wearing comfort. The area around the cup 102 is woven with face yarn and ground yarn in a 2+2 horizontal hanging stitch stitch, which has a breast-enhancing appearance that tightens towards the center and lifts upwards, thus highlighting and lifting the breasts. The waist and back portion 105 and the thigh portion 108 are woven with face yarn and ground yarn in a plain knit stitch with added fabric. The buttock cup portion 1... 06 The ground yarn is woven with a plain weft stitch, which will not cause excessive pressure on the buttocks and may result in a flat buttocks, and has a good shaping effect; the area around the buttock cup 107 is woven with the face yarn and the ground yarn in a 2+2 horizontal hanging stitch, 1+1 false rib, or 1+2 false rib, which tightens the fabric to lift the buttocks and make the buttocks more defined; the front abdomen 103 is woven with the face yarn and the ground yarn in a 1+2 false rib or 1+2 rib, and the side abdomen 104 is woven with the face yarn and the ground yarn in a 1+4 false rib or 1+4 rib, which tightens the fabric to slim the abdomen and waist.

[0032] In the above-described structure, in this embodiment, the face yarn is a first nylon filament 20D / 24F, the padding yarn is a second nylon filament 22D / 20F, and the ground yarn is a 40 / 20 nylon-spandex covered yarn. Note that the face yarn monofilament specification range is 20D-40D, the padding yarn monofilament specification range is 20D-30D, the spandex core layer fineness in the ground yarn is 30D-45D, and the outer covering yarn fineness is 15D-25D; in some other examples, the underwear body 100 is a polyester-spandex elastic fabric, then the face yarn is a first polyester filament, the ground yarn is a polyester-spandex covered yarn, and the padding yarn is a second polyester filament.

[0033] In this embodiment, the extended trouser leg 200 is made of nylon-spandex elastic fabric, woven with spandex double-covered yarn in a plain weave or 1+3 faux rib knit structure. The transverse density of the extended trouser leg 200 is 26.8 loops per centimeter in the transverse direction, and the longitudinal density is 48.8 loops per centimeter in the longitudinal direction. The spandex double-covered yarn has a specification of 20 / 10 / 10, meaning the core yarn is 20D-30D spandex, the inner yarn is 10D-20D nylon, and the outer yarn is 10D-20D nylon. The spiral wrapping directions of the inner and outer yarns are opposite, resulting in a yarn that... Note that the core yarn fineness should be selected within the range of 20D-30D, the inner yarn fineness within the range of 10D-20D, and the outer yarn fineness within the range of 10D-20D. Generally, the spandex double-wrapped yarn has no twist direction, resulting in a smooth, lightweight, and sheer fabric for the extended leg 200. Compared to traditional spandex single-wrapped yarn, the spandex double-wrapped yarn helps improve the elasticity of the extended leg 200 while ensuring its bursting strength and resistance to snagging. Additionally, in some other examples, the extended leg 200 can also be a polyester-spandex stretch fabric, in which case both the inner and outer yarns of the spandex double-wrapped yarn are replaced with polyester.

[0034] In this embodiment, the hem of the extended pant leg 200 is folded inward and sewn with elastic yarn to form a hem fold 201. The width of the hem fold 201 is 15mm-30mm. The elastic yarn is nylon-spandex covered yarn with a specification of 20 / 70, that is, the core yarn spandex has a fineness of 20D and the outer covering yarn nylon has a fineness of 70D.

[0035] like Figures 5-6 As shown, the underwear body 100 has a seamless knitted structure and the underwear body 100 forms a first seam 110 only at the connection with the crotch piece 300. The extended pant leg 200 is seamlessly knitted with the underwear body 100 and the extended pant leg 200 forms a second seam 210 only on the inner thigh. The upper part of the second seam 210 of the extended pant leg 200 is the connection position between the extended pant leg 200 and the crotch piece 300. The first seam 110 and the second seam 210 are sewn together by stitching (in other examples, the first seam 110 and the second seam 210 can also be heat-fused, such as by dot glue bonding or hot pressing of adhesive film).

[0036] The processing steps of the shapewear in this embodiment include the following steps: 1) Using a SANTONI seamless underwear machine with a stitch pitch of 28 stitches / inch, a seamless fabric tube structure is woven integrally from top to bottom or from bottom to top. The yarn switching point between the extended pant leg 200 and the underwear body 100 is designed on the inner thigh; 2) The crotch piece is cut open from bottom to top along the inner seam to the crotch position. The crotch piece 300 is sewn or heat-fused to the underwear body 100 and the extended pant leg 200 along the inner seam and crotch seam. The crotch piece 300 is connected to the underwear body 100 to form the first seam 110. The crotch piece 300 is connected to the upper part of the extended pant leg 200, and the extended pant leg 200 is spliced ​​at the cut to form the second seam 210; 3) The leg opening of the extended pant leg 200 is folded inward and fixed with elastic yarn to obtain the leg opening hem 201; 4) The top edge 500 of the front and back sides of the underwear body 100 is bound and the shoulder strap 400 is sewn.

[0037] The yarn arrangement process is shown in Table 1. There are eight yarn feeders with four feeders in total. Yarn feeder #1 is threaded with 20 / 10 / 10 spandex double-covered yarn and feeds yarn through eight feeders. Yarn feeder #2 is threaded with 40 / 20 nylon-spandex covered yarn as the ground yarn and feeds yarn through eight feeders, with the twist directions of adjacent feeders being opposite. Yarn feeder #4 is threaded with 22D / 20F nylon filament as padding yarn and feeds yarn through the first, third, fifth, and seventh feeders. Yarn feeder #5 is threaded with 20D / 24F nylon filament as face yarn and feeds yarn through eight feeders, with the twist directions of adjacent feeders being opposite.
