Description

[Technical field]

[0001] The present invention relates to a rear pocket. [Background technology]

[0002] Many work clothes for food manufacturing and processing factories do not have pockets to prevent foreign objects from entering the clothes. However, some businesses require work clothes to have pockets. Therefore, in order to meet both needs, work clothes manufacturers have to manufacture and stock two types of work clothes of the same type, one with pockets and one without pockets, which creates a problem of increased costs.

[0003] Therefore, it is conceivable to use a retrofit pocket as described in, for example, Patent Document 1 and Patent Document 2. In other words, by attaching a retrofit pocket to work clothes that do not have pockets, the need for pockets on work clothes is met. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0004] [Patent Document 1] JP 2005-160698 A [Patent Document 2] JP 2004-060121 A Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0005] However, in the case of the attached pockets described in Patent Documents 1 and 2, when a force is applied from the outside in a direction to peel the attached pocket off the garment, the attached pocket easily comes off. Therefore, the attached pocket itself can become a foreign object, and the attached pocket cannot be washed while it is attached to the work clothes.

[0006] To provide a rear-attached pocket which can be attached to and detached from clothing and which will not easily come off even if a force is applied from the outside in a direction to peel the rear-attached pocket off the clothing. [Means for solving the problem]

[0007] In order to achieve the above object, the rear pocket of the present invention comprises a bag-shaped pocket main body having an opening, a band-shaped holding member having one end fixed to the pocket main body and at least the other end provided with an engaging portion, and an engaged portion provided inside the pocket main body and engaging with the engaging portion. The other end of the holding member is inserted into the pocket main body from the opening while being passed through an insertion portion provided on the garment, and the engaging portion engages with the engaged portion inside the pocket main body.

[0008] The rear pocket of the present invention includes a bag-shaped pocket body having an opening, a flap portion that covers the opening in an openable and closable manner and has a through hole formed therein, a band-shaped retaining member having one end fixed to the pocket body portion and at least the other end provided with an engaging portion, and an engaged portion provided on the back surface of the flap portion and engaging with the engaging portion. The other end of the retaining member is inserted into the through hole while being passed through an insertion portion provided on the garment, and the engaging portion is engaged with the engaged portion on the back surface side of the flap portion. Effect of the Invention

[0009] As a result, the attachment pocket of the present invention can be attached to and detached from clothing, but will not easily come off even if a force is applied from the outside in a direction that pulls the attachment pocket off the clothing. [Brief description of the drawings]

[0011] <First embodiment> Hereinafter, an embodiment of the post-attached pocket according to the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. In this embodiment, as shown in Figures 2A and 2B, the width direction (X), the up-down direction (Y), and the thickness direction (Z) are defined for the post-attached pocket 1. The side shown in Figure 2A is the front side, and the opposite side is the back side.

[0012] Fig. 1 is a diagram of a rear pocket 1 and pants P which is an example of a garment, Fig. 2A is a front view of the rear pocket 1, and Fig. 2B is an end view taken along line IIB-IIB in Fig. 2A. For ease of explanation, the pants P are shown in Fig. 1 inside out (with the inner side facing out).

[0013] The trousers P are workwear trousers for use in factories where food is manufactured or processed, and to prevent contamination with foreign matter, no pockets are provided as shown in Fig. 1. The rear pocket 1 of this embodiment is a pocket separate from the trousers P, and can be attached to the trousers P as necessary. The trousers P are provided in advance with an insertion portion IP for attaching the rear pocket 1.

[0014] In the first embodiment, the insertion part IP is formed of a first string-like body R1 and a second string-like body R2, both ends of which are sewn to the waist part WT of the trousers P, and is provided at two locations, the first insertion part IP1 and the second insertion part IP2. The first insertion part IP1 is formed in a ring shape by the fabric of the waist part WT and the first string-like body R1, both ends of which are sewn to the fabric. The second insertion part IP2 is also formed in a ring shape by the fabric of the waist part WT and the second string-like body R2, both ends of which are sewn to the fabric.

[0015] As shown in FIGS. 2A and 2B, the attachment pocket 1 includes a pocket main body 3 and holding members 5, 5'.

[0016] The pocket body 3 is formed into a bag shape with an opening 13 formed at the top by folding a fabric made of woven cloth or nonwoven fabric made of cotton or synthetic fibers and sewing both ends in the width direction X with the loops facing downward. As a result, the pocket body 3 has a front part 7, a rear part 9, and a pair of sewn parts 11A, 11B. Here, the length dimension of the front part 7 in the up-down direction Y is shorter than that of the rear part 9, and as a result, the opening 13 is open toward the front side.

[0017] The pocket main body 3 has a flap 15. The flap 15 is provided at a position overlapping the front side of the pocket main body 3, and an upper side 15C is sewn to the upper part of the rear surface 9 to cover the opening 13 in an openable and closable manner. The flap 15 is fixed to the front surface 7 and rear surface 9 of the pocket main body 3 by sewing a pair of opposing side portions 15A, 15B extending in a direction (vertical direction Y) intersecting the direction in which the opening 13 extends (width direction X) together with a pair of sewn portions 11A, 11B. That is, the flap 15 is fixed at both ends in the width direction X, and only the center portion in the width direction can be rolled up.

[0018] Two slit-shaped through holes 17, 17' extending in the width direction X are formed in the flap portion 15. The through holes 17, 17' are formed side by side in the width direction X and are arranged on both sides in the width direction X of the pocket main body portion 3. The through holes 17, 17' are so-called sleep holes and have a length in the width direction X that allows the holding members 5, 5' to be inserted therethrough.

[0019] The holding members 5, 5' are strip-shaped members fixed to the pocket body 3. One end 5A of the holding member 5 is fixed to the pocket body 3, and at least the other end 5B is provided with a first hook-and-loop fastener (engagement portion) 21. In this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 2B, the holding member 5 is disposed on one side of the pocket body 3 in the width direction X, and one end 5A is sandwiched between the pocket body 3 and the flap portion 15 and sewn together with the pocket body 3 and the flap portion 15 for fixation. In this embodiment, the holding member 5 itself is a tape-shaped loop-type hook-and-loop fastener (also called a female type or B-side), and the entire front side of the holding member 5 constitutes the engagement portion.

[0020] The holding member 5' is configured in the same manner as the holding member 5, and therefore a suffix "" is added to the reference numeral of the holding member 5, and a description thereof will be omitted. The holding member 5' is disposed on the other side of the pocket main body 3 in the width direction X.

[0021] Inside the pocket main body 3, there are provided a second hook-and-loop fastener (engaged portion) 23 that engages with the first hook-and-loop fastener 21, and a second hook-and-loop fastener (engaged portion) 23' that engages with the first hook-and-loop fastener 21'. In this embodiment, the second hook-and-loop fasteners 23, 23' are hook-type hook-and-loop fasteners (also called male type or A-side). The second hook-and-loop fasteners 23, 23' are sewn and fixed to the rear surface portion 9 inside the pocket main body 3, and the engaged surface faces the front surface portion 7. The second hook-and-loop fasteners 23, 23' are arranged side by side in the width direction X.

[0022] 2A, the retaining member 5 (first hook-and-loop fastener 21), through-hole 17, and second hook-and-loop fastener 23 are aligned linearly along the vertical direction Y. Similarly, the retaining member 5' (first hook-and-loop fastener 21'), through-hole 17', and second hook-and-loop fastener 23' are also aligned linearly along the vertical direction Y.

[0023] Next, the process of attaching the rear pocket 1 to the trousers P will be described with reference to Figures 3A to 4B. Figure 3A is a front view showing a state in which the holding members 5, 5' are inserted into the insertion portion IP, and Figure 3B is an end view taken along line IIIB-IIIB in Figure 3A. Figure 4A is a front view showing a state in which the rear pocket 1 is attached to the trousers P, and Figure 4B is an end view taken along line IVB-IVB in Figure 4A.

[0024] When attaching the rear pocket 1 to the trousers P, the installer first inserts the holding member 5 into the first insertion portion IP1 from below, and then inserts the holding member 5' into the second insertion portion IP2 from below (see Figures 3A and 3B).

[0025] Next, the attacher folds the holding member 5 toward the front side, inserts the other end 5B of the holding member 5 into the pocket body 3 from the opening 13 through the through hole 17, and engages the first hook-and-loop fastener 21 with the second hook-and-loop fastener 23 inside the pocket body 3. At this time, the attacher can easily insert the holding member 5 by rolling up the center of the width direction of the flap portion 15, pinching the other end 5B of the holding member 5 from the back side of the flap portion 15, and pulling it into the pocket body 3. In the same manner, the attacher folds the holding member 5' toward the front side, inserts the other end 5B' of the holding member 5' into the pocket body 3 from the opening 13 through the through hole 17', and engages the first hook-and-loop fastener 21' with the second hook-and-loop fastener 23' inside the pocket body 3. As a result, the rear pocket 1 is fixed to the trousers P (see Figs. 4A and 4B).

[0026] The operation of the retrofit pocket 1 of the first embodiment will now be described.

[0027] The rear pocket 1 comprises a bag-shaped pocket main body 3 having an opening 13, band-shaped holding members 5, 5' having one end 5A, 5A' fixed to the pocket main body 3 and having engaging portions (first hook-and-loop fasteners) 21, 21' at at least the other end 5B, 5B', and engaged portions (second hook-and-loop fasteners) 23, 23' provided inside the pocket main body 3 and engaging with the engaging portions 21, 21'. With the holding members 5, 5' passed through an insertion portion IP provided on the garment (trousers P), the other end 5B, 5B' is inserted into the pocket main body 3 from the opening 13, and the engaging portions 21, 21' are engaged with the engaged portions 23, 23' inside the pocket main body 3.

[0028] In this way, by engaging the engaging portion 21, 21' with the engaged portion 23, 23' inside the pocket body portion 3, when the rear pocket 1 is attached to the trousers P, the other end 5B, 5B' of the holding member 5, 5' is covered by the pocket body portion 3. Therefore, the other end 5B, 5B' of the holding member 5, 5' is not easily pulled off from the engaged portion 23, 23' when it is caught on something. In addition, even if a force is applied from the outside in a direction (e.g., downward) to pull the rear pocket 1 off the trousers P, it does not come off easily. Therefore, it is possible to provide a rear pocket 1 that can be attached and detached from the garment (trousers P) and does not come off easily. With the rear pocket 1 of this embodiment, it is also possible to wash the trousers P in a washing machine even when the rear pocket 1 is attached.

[0029] In this embodiment, the attached pocket 1 has a flap portion 15 with through holes 17, 17' formed therein, but the presence or absence of the flap portion 15 is optional. It is of course better to have the flap portion 15 in order to prevent small items stored in the attached pocket 1 from falling out. Furthermore, by passing the retaining members 5, 5' through the through holes 17, 17' formed in the flap portion 15, the retaining members 5, 5' come into contact with the inside of the pocket main body 3 and the flap portion 15 including the periphery of the through holes 17, 17', generating friction (static friction force), making it even more difficult to come off.

[0030] In the case of having a flap portion 15 that covers the opening 13 in an openable and closable manner and overlaps with the pocket main body 3, a pair of opposing sides 15A, 15B of the flap portion 15 extending in a direction intersecting the extension direction of the opening 13 may be sewn and fixed to the pocket main body 3. In this way, not only will small items stored in the attached pocket 1 be less likely to fall out, but the force with which the flap portion 15 presses down on the holding members 5, 5' is improved, making the attached pocket 1 less likely to come off.

[0031] Any material may be used for the engaging portions 21, 21' and the engaged portions 23, 23' as long as they are mutually engageable. For example, the engaging portions 21, 21' are first hook-and-loop fasteners, and the engaged portions 23, 23' are second hook-and-loop fasteners. In this case, as in the first embodiment, the entire front side of the holding members 5, 5' may be made of the first hook-and-loop fastener, or, as shown in FIG. 5, the other end portions 5B, 5B' of the holding members 5, 5' may have first hook-and-loop fasteners 21, 21' having the same size as the second hook-and-loop fasteners 23, 23'.

[0032] By using the hook-and-loop fastener, the post-attached pocket 1 can be easily fixed. Furthermore, the hook-and-loop fastener can be easily pulled apart in the thickness direction Z when the first hook-and-loop fastener and the second hook-and-loop fastener are engaged, but has a property that it is difficult to peel off even when pulled in a direction parallel to the surface of the hook-and-loop fastener (the width direction X or the up-down direction Y), so even if a force is applied to the post-attached pocket 1 from the outside, the post-attached pocket 1 is difficult to come off. Furthermore, since the hook-and-loop fastener engages with the surface, even if the first hook-and-loop fastener and the second hook-and-loop fastener are partially peeled off, the other parts are engaged, so the engagement is not easily released, and the post-attached pocket 1 is difficult to come off. Furthermore, when the entire front side is the first hook-and-loop fastener, the length of the holding members 5, 5' can be adjusted.

[0033] When using hook-and-loop fasteners, it is preferable to use a loop-type hook-and-loop fastener (also called female type or B-side) as the first hook-and-loop fastener and a hook-type hook-and-loop fastener (also called male type or A-side) as the second hook-and-loop fastener. This is because hook-and-loop fasteners are structured to hook and engage with hook-type hook-and-loop fasteners, and the hooks of the hook-type hook-and-loop fasteners are harder than the loops of the loop-type hook-and-loop fasteners, and there is a risk of damaging the surrounding fabric. By always keeping the hook-type hook-and-loop fastener inside the pocket main body 3, it is possible to prevent the hooks of the hook-type hook-and-loop fasteners from getting caught on the surrounding fabric and damaging the fabric.

[0034] Instead of the hook and loop fastener, for example, a snap button may be used as shown in Fig. 6. When the snap button is used, the rear attachment pocket 1 can be easily fixed in place, just like the hook and loop fastener.

[0035] In the above first embodiment, the holding members 5, 5' are fixed by sewing together with the pocket body 3 and the flap portion 15, but they may be detachably fixed to the pocket body 3 (for example, to the back surface of the pocket body 3). In this way, the holding members 5, 5' can be replaced with holding members of different lengths.

[0036] <Second embodiment> 7A and 7B are diagrams showing a second embodiment of the rear pocket 101. FIG. 7A is a front view of the rear pocket 101, and FIG. 7B is an end view taken along line VIIB-VIIB in FIG. 7A. In FIG. 7A and FIG. 7B, the first hook-and-loop fastener 121' and the second hook-and-loop fastener 123' of the holding member 105' are engaged with each other without the insertion part IP of the trousers P. In FIG. 7A and FIG. 7B, the parts common to the first embodiment shown in FIG. 1, FIG. 2A and FIG. 2B are denoted by reference numerals which are 100 larger than the reference numerals denoted by ...

[0037] In the second embodiment, first hook-and-loop fasteners (engaging portions) 121, 121' are fixed to the back surface of the other end portions 105B, 105B' of holding members 105, 105' (in FIG. 7A, holding member 105 is folded back so that first hook-and-loop fasteners 121 fixed to the back surface are visible from the front side). Second hook-and-loop fasteners (engaged portions) 123, 123' are fixed to the back surface of flap portion 115 (see FIG. 7B).

[0038] When attaching the rear pocket 101 to the trousers P, the installer folds the retaining member that has been previously inserted into the insertion portion IP as shown in FIG. 7B, and pulls the other end 105B, 105B' of the retaining member 105, 105' to the back surface of the flap portion 115 through the through holes 117, 117', thereby engaging the first hook-and-loop fastener 121, 121' with the second hook-and-loop fastener 123, 123'.

[0039] In the second embodiment, the other end 105B, 105B' of the holding member 105, 105' is covered by the flap portion 115. This makes it difficult for the engaging portion 21, 21' to be pulled off from the engaged portion 23, 23' in an unexpected manner, as in the first embodiment. In addition, even if a force is applied from the outside in a direction (e.g., downward) to pull the rear pocket 1 off the trousers P, the rear pocket 1 will not come off easily. Therefore, it is possible to provide a rear pocket 101 that can be attached to and detached from the garment (trousers P) but will not come off easily. Other functions of the rear pocket 101 in the second embodiment are the same as those in the first embodiment, and therefore will not be described here.

[0040] Although the embodiments of the present invention have been specifically described above, the present invention is not limited to these embodiments, and it goes without saying that modifications are possible within the scope of the technical concept of the present invention.

[0041] For example, in the first and second embodiments, examples are shown in which two holding members and two corresponding inserted parts are provided, but it goes without saying that other numbers of combinations are also acceptable. That is, there may be one holding member and one inserted part, or there may be one inserted part for two holding members. Also, multiple inserted parts may be provided so that the position where the retrofit pocket is fixed can be selected.

[0042] Also, for example, in the first embodiment, the first hook-and-loop fastener is on the front surface of the retaining member and the second hook-and-loop fastener is on the rear side of the interior of the pocket main body, but it is also possible for the first hook-and-loop fastener to be on the rear side of the retaining member and the second hook-and-loop fastener to be on the front side of the interior of the pocket main body.

[0043] In addition, in the present embodiment, the garment to which the rear pocket is to be attached is trousers as an example, but it goes without saying that the garment may be other garments such as a skirt or a jacket. [Explanation of symbols]
