Bottom clothing

Abstract

To provide bottom clothing capable of guiding the pelvis to a correct inclination by tightening the pelvis with such an appropriate wearing pressure as not to inhibit a blood flow even when worn for a long time, and supporting the periphery of the pelvis at an appropriate position while pulling up the pelvic floor muscle group.SOLUTION: Bottom clothing is composed of a bottom body 10, a laterally long first support part 20 disposed to be laid on the front surface side of the bottom body 10, and a vertically long second support part 30 disposed to be laid on the front surface side of the bottom body 10. The first support part 20 is disposed to be laid on the bottom body so as to annularly surround the periphery of the pelvis along the respective positions of the pubis, the ilium, and the upper portion of the sacrum of a wearer when worn, and the peripheral edge is sewn to the bottom body. The second support part 30 is disposed on the front surface side of the bottom body 10 in a state of being folded back from the front bodice side to the back bodice side of the bottom body 10 so as to cover the crotch and a part of the buttocks of the wearer when worn.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1

Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to bottom clothing that can support the wearer's pelvis at an appropriate position without burdening the human body.

Background Art

[0002] Conventionally, girdle-type bottom clothing for supporting the pelvis has been made by overlapping a stretchy stretch fabric with a stretch material having the same or higher stretchability to tighten the area around the wearer's pelvis more strongly (see Patent Document 1). Bottom clothing of this strongly tightening type exhibits a strong effect of correcting the tilt of the pelvis and enhancing the hips.

[0003] However, bottom clothing that overly tightens the body not only leaves linear marks on the wearer's skin but also, when worn for a long time, inhibits blood flow and burdens the human body. In particular, it was unsuitable for wearing such bottom clothing during exercise.

[0004] On the other hand, when trying to lift the weakened pelvic floor muscle group using bottom clothing that does not strongly tighten the area around the pelvis, there is a risk that the tightening around the pelvis may become weak or the position of the tightening may shift. Since the phenomenon of the pelvic internal organs dropping without being supported by the pelvic floor muscle group is caused by pelvic looseness, it is necessary to lift the pelvic floor muscle group while moderately tightening the area around the pelvis.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

[0028] Detailed embodiments of the bottom garment according to the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

[0029] As shown in Figures 1 and 2, the bottom clothing 1 is composed of a bottom body 10, a horizontally elongated first support portion 20 arranged overlapping the surface side (outside) of the bottom body 10, and a vertically elongated second support portion 30 arranged overlapping the surface side (outside) of the bottom body 10.

[0030] The bottom body 10 has a front body (FIG. 1) that covers the front side (abdominal side) of the wearer's torso when worn, and a back body (FIG. 2) that covers the back side (buttocks side) of the wearer's torso, and is formed with a waist opening 101a and a pair of left and right leg openings 102a, 102b, covering each part of the wearer from the waist to the crotch and the upper left and right thighs, and has a pants-like shape that fits the body. The bottom body 10 is divided into an annular upper part 101 that covers the wearer's waist (waist) to the upper part of the abdomen and upper buttocks when worn, and a lower part 102 that is located below the upper part 101 and covers the lower abdomen, crotch, upper thighs, etc. of the wearer. The lower part 102 is further divided into a right lower part and a left lower part that are divided left and right along the crotch, and the right lower part has a right leg opening 102a and the left lower part has a left leg opening 102b. The upper part 101 is sewn to the center of the back body, and the lower part 102 is sewn to the center of the front body and the back body, and the lower edge of the upper part 101 is sewn to the upper edge of the lower part 102. Note that the bottom body 10 does not have to be divided into the upper part 101 and the lower part 102.

[0031] The bottom body 10 is made of a knitted or woven fabric having elasticity in two different directions, such as two-way tricot, plain knit, satin net, milled knit, smooth knit, spandex, etc. The bottom body 10 is preferably arranged so as to be more elastic in the length direction Y (vertical direction) than in the width direction X (horizontal direction).

[0032] In addition, terms indicating directions, including up, down, left, right, front, and back, are based on the direction seen by the wearer when wearing the garment, and do not mean that the front and back panels are each made of a single piece of fabric.

[0033] The first support part 20 is made of a separate member from the bottom body 10, is long in the horizontal direction (left and right direction), and is made of a knitted fabric that is generally in a substantially belt shape. It is placed on the front side of the bottom body 10 and its entire periphery is sewn to the bottom body 10. L1, L2a, and L2b in Figs. 1 and 2 show the sewn seams. At this time, the area of ​​the first support part 20 surrounded by the periphery and the bottom body 10 that overlaps this area are not sewn to each other. The first support part 20 may be placed so as to surround the pelvis in the circumferential direction from the center of the rear body side of the bottom body 10, pass through the front body, and return to the center of the rear body of the bottom body 10. Also, the area placed on the front body side of the bottom body 10 and the area placed on the rear body side of the bottom body 10 may be composed of separate parts. At this time, the bottom body 10 is divided into an upper part 101 and a lower part 102 along the lower edge portion of the periphery of the first support part 20 so that the first support part 20 is positioned on the bottom body 10, and the lower edge portion of the upper part 101 and the upper edge portion of the lower part 102 are sewn together with the lower edge portion of the first support part 20 (the sewing lines are L2a and L2b).

[0034] The first support part 20 has a front body central region 20a having a horizontally long, substantially rectangular shape in the region sewn to the front body of the bottom body 10 (the region located in front of the wearer's torso when worn), a front body inclined region 20b inclined obliquely upward from the front body central region 20a, and a back body curved region 20d in the region sewn to the back body (the region located in the back of the wearer's torso) that curves from the center in the body width direction X (hereinafter referred to as "back body central region 20c") as the apex, which are continuously formed. As shown in Figures 3 and 4, this corresponds to the position of the wearer's pelvis, and is designed to surround the pubic bone B1, ilium B3, and upper sacrum B4 of the wearer when worn. More specifically, as shown in Figures 3 and 4, the first support part 20 covers the left and right pubic bones B1, B1 centered on the wearer's pubic symphysis PS, with its upper edge avoiding the left and right anterior superior iliac spines B5, B5, its lower edge covering the upper parts of the left and right greater trochanters B2, B2, covering the central parts of the left and right iliac bones B3, B3 diagonally upwards, and covering the upper part of the sacrum B4. Thus, the first support part 20 is formed in a substantially belt-like shape and has a front body central region 20a that covers the left and right pubic bones B1, B1 of the wearer when worn, a pair of front body inclined regions 20b that curve diagonally upward from the front body central region 20a and cover the bases of the left and right thighs, a pair of back body curved regions 20d that curve diagonally upward from the front body inclined region 20b to the center of the back body and cover the ilium B3 that curves in an arc from the front body inclined region 20b to the center of the back body, and a back body central region 20c that covers the upper part of the sacrum B4 at the center of the back body. The dashed and dotted lines shown in Figs. 1 and 2 respectively indicate the boundaries between these regions.

[0035] The length (width in the vertical direction) of the first support part 20 in the body length direction Y is preferably about 4 to 8 cm. If the length in the body length direction Y is made shorter (narrower), the tightening action will be strong, and the wearer's skin may be left with a linear mark, which may impair comfort, and may also cause a blockage of blood flow. On the other hand, if the length in the body length direction Y is made longer (wider), the pelvis will pass through a part where pressure should not be applied, and the pelvis will not be guided to the correct inclination. However, it is preferable that the front body inclined region 20b of the first support part 20 has a shorter length in the body length direction Y (narrower width) than the other regions, and the length of the front body inclined region 20b in the body length direction Y is preferably about 2 to 6 cm. Therefore, the front body inclined region 20b has an upper edge that forms an arc and a lower edge that forms an S-shape. The area near the base of the thigh repeatedly bends and stretches in conjunction with the movement of the lower limbs, so by making the width narrower than the other regions, it is possible to prevent the up and down movement of the lower limbs from being impeded.

[0036] The first support part 20 is made of a knitted fabric that is inelastic or hardly stretchable (non-stretchable or barely stretchable) in one direction and stretchable in another direction perpendicular to the one direction. For example, the first support part 20 can be made of a knitted fabric that stretches in the wale direction but does not stretch or barely stretches in the course direction (e.g., one-way power net, one-way tricot, etc.). The knitted fabric may be a weft knitted fabric or a warp knitted fabric.

[0037] The first support parts 20 are arranged overlapping on the front body side of the bottom body 10 with the non-stretchable or difficult-to-stretch direction facing the body length direction Y, and are arranged overlapping on the back body side of the bottom body 10 with the non-stretchable or difficult-to-stretch direction facing the body length direction Y or the bias direction (a direction that slopes linearly downward from above toward the body width direction). Below, a description will be given of the case where a knitted fabric that stretches in the wale direction but does not stretch or barely stretches in the course direction is used for the first support parts 20.

[0038] As shown in Figs. 5 and 6, the first support part 20 is arranged on the front body side of the bottom body 10 so that the course direction (direction indicated by the dotted line) faces the body length direction Y (Fig. 5), and on the back body side of the bottom body 10 so that the course direction also faces the body length direction Y (Fig. 6). Also, as shown in Figs. 5 and 7, the first support part 20 may be arranged on the front body surface side of the bottom body 10 so that the course direction faces the body length direction Y (Fig. 5), and on the back body surface side of the bottom body 10 so that the course direction faces the bias direction (Fig. 7). The bias direction is preferably a direction that slopes downward to the right or left in the body width direction from the upper edge to the lower edge of the first support part 20, symmetrically with respect to the center in the body width direction. The inclination angle does not need to be 45 degrees. In Figs. 5 to 7, the dotted lines indicate the non-stretchable or difficult-stretchable direction (course direction).

[0039] In this way, the bottom clothing 1 uses the first support part 20 having a lower elasticity than the bottom body 10, and by arranging the less elastic direction of the first support part 20 toward the body length direction Y or the bias direction, the stretch in the body width direction X is ensured at the overlapping part of the bottom body 10 and the first support part 20, while the stretch in the body length direction Y is suppressed. When the wearer wears this bottom clothing 1, the bottom body 10 stretches in each of the body width direction X and the body length direction Y until it fits the wearer's body. At that time, the overlapping area of ​​the bottom body 10 and the first support part 20 stretches in the body width direction X following the bottom body 10, but as a result of the stretch being suppressed in the body length direction Y, pressure is applied to the inside of the wearer's body, and a force is applied to hold down each part constituting the wearer's pelvis. In this way, pressure is applied around the pelvis in the area where the first support part 20 and the bottom body 10 overlap, and pressure can be applied to the wearer's pubic bone, ilium, and sacrum, making it possible to effectively support the pelvis.

[0040] Here, as shown in Fig. 6, if the first support section 20 is arranged on the rear body side of the bottom body 10 in the same way as on the front body side, with the course direction facing the body length direction Y, the same pressing force acts on the rear side of the wearer's body as on the front side. However, because the rear body of the bottom body 10 is subject to a larger force on the rear side than on the front side of the wearer's torso due to the bulging of the buttocks, more pressure is applied to the rear side of the wearer's torso. This is particularly effective for wearers who wish to visually make their buttocks look smaller.

[0041] On the other hand, as shown in Fig. 7, when the first support part 20 is arranged in the rear part of the bottom body 10 with the course direction facing the bias direction, it stretches in response to the swelling of the wearer's buttocks, and the force acting on the inside of the rear side of the wearer's body is weakened, compared to when the course direction is arranged in the body length direction Y. As a result, it becomes possible to apply pressure almost evenly to the front and rear sides of the wearer's torso. As a result, when the first support part 20 arranged in this way goes around the pelvis, it is possible to apply appropriate pressure to the pubic bone, ilium, and sacrum, respectively, and it becomes possible to effectively support the pelvis.

[0042] It is preferable that the fabric of the back body of the upper part 101 of the bottom body 10 is oriented in the bias direction, and that the direction of the fabric of the first support part 20 (e.g., course direction) is oriented in the bias direction so as to be parallel to the direction of the fabric of the bottom body 10. By arranging the bottom body 10 and the first support part 20 in this manner, the back body curved region 20d of the first support part 20 curves downward from the back body central region 20c in the body width direction X (left and right direction), ensuring stretchability in the body width direction X, and eliminating the difficulty of putting on the pants when worn.

[0043] 1 and 2, the second support part 30 is made of a separate member from the bottom body 10 and the first support part 20, has a vertically long, approximately rectangular shape with one or both ends in the longitudinal direction being wider, and is arranged on the surface side of the bottom body 10 in a state where it is folded back from the front body side to the rear body side along the center part of the bottom body 10 in the width direction X so as to cover the crotch part and part of the buttocks of the wearer when worn. One end (upper side of the approximately rectangular shape) of the second support part 30 is sewn together with the bottom body 10 along the lower edge of the first support part 20 (front body central region 20a) arranged on the front body side of the bottom body 10, and the other end (lower side of the approximately rectangular shape) is sewn together with the bottom body 10 along the lower edge (mainly the rear body central region 20c) of the first support part 20 arranged on the rear body side of the bottom body 10. As shown in Figures 1 and 2, seam line L1 indicates the seam line where the bottom body 10 and the first support part 20 are sewn together at the upper edge of the first support part 20, seam line L2a indicates the seam line where the bottom body 10 and the first support part 20 are sewn together at the lower edge of the first support part 20, and seam line L2b indicates the seam line where the bottom body 10, the second support part 30, and the first support part 20 are sewn together at the lower edge of the first support part 20.

[0044] The second support part 30 is not sewn to the bottom body 10 at either of its two longitudinal sides (301a and 302a), and is in a state of hanging down below the crotch part. At this time, it is preferable that the position 30t where the second support part 30 is folded from the front body side to the back body side of the bottom body 10 is in contact with the lower end of the center part in the width direction X of the bottom body 10, and the lower end of the center part in the width direction X of the bottom body 10 is slightly lifted upward. Therefore, when the bottom clothing 1 is not worn, as shown in FIG. 1, the fabric of the right leg opening 102a and the left leg opening 102b of the bottom body 10 on the center side in the width direction X (the side that contacts the inner thigh of the wearer when worn) is folded to form pleats, but when the bottom clothing 1 is worn, as shown in FIG. 8, the fabric of the bottom body 10 stretches, and the pleats disappear.

[0045] In this way, the second support part 30 has a substantially square-shaped front body region 301 that is arranged overlapping the front body side of the bottom body 10, and a vertically elongated, substantially rectangular back body region 302 that is arranged overlapping the back body side of the bottom body 10. With portions of the leg openings 102a, 102b of the bottom body 10 raised upward, the upper end (upper side of the substantially rectangular shape) of the front body region 301 is sewn to the lower edge of the first support part 20 (front body central region 20a), and the upper end (lower side of the substantially rectangular shape) of the back body region 302 is sewn to the lower edge of the first support part 20 (mainly the back body central region 20c) together with the bottom body.

[0046] In addition, of the two longitudinal sides (the left and right sides of the approximately rectangular shape) 301a, 301b of the front body region 301, the upper region (the region located on the front body side of the bottom main body 10 and sewn to the first support part 20) is curved so as to expand in the body width direction X so as to curve continuously with the lower end edge of the front body inclined region 20b of the first support part 20.

[0047] In addition, when the bottom clothing 1 does not include the first support portion 20, the second support portion 30 is sewn to the front body side of the bottom body 10 so as to cover the wearer's pubic bone B1 when worn, and is sewn to the back body side of the bottom body 10 so as to cover the wearer's sacrum B4 when worn.

[0048] The second support part 30 may be made of the same fabric as the bottom body 10, or may be made of the same fabric as the first support part 20. More specifically, a fabric having approximately the same elasticity as the bottom body 10 or less elasticity (a knitted or woven fabric having elasticity in two different directions) may be used, and a fabric having approximately the same elasticity as the first support part 20 or less elasticity (a warp knitted or weft knitted fabric that is highly elastic in one of the wale and course directions but hardly elastic in the direction perpendicular to the direction in which it is highly elastic) may be used.

[0049] In this way, the second support part 30 is folded back near the boundary between the front and back bodies from the front body side to the back body side of the bottom body 10, so that when worn, a force pulling it upward acts with the wearer's crotch as a fulcrum. This applies pressure to the wearer's crotch, making it possible to support the pelvis from below. Since the bottom body 10 is sewn to the lower end edge of the first support part 20, the bottom body 10 is sewn to the lower end edge of the first support part 20, so that the pelvis can be supported without a decrease in pressure on the wearer's crotch due to the stretching of the bottom body 10, compared to when the first support part 20 and the second support part 30 are sewn to the bottom body 10 in a separated state. In addition, the upper regions of the left side 301a and the right side 301b of the second support part 30 are curved and expanded in the body width direction X, and the front body inclined region 20b of the first support part 20 is inclined obliquely upward in the body width direction X, so that the force pulling it upward is naturally converted into a force pulling it in the left and right directions. This makes it possible to support the pelvis from below while providing stable support around the pelvis without placing any load on the first support part 20 or the second support part 30, and ultimately without placing any load on any part of the pelvis.

[0050] As shown in Figs. 5 to 7, the second support part 30 is preferably arranged in the length direction Y using a fabric with a lower elasticity in the weft direction than in the warp direction. In other words, by orienting the weft direction with a lower elasticity in the length direction Y, the stretch in the length direction Y is more suppressed than when the highly elastic direction is arranged in the length direction Y. In particular, the second support part 30 extending in the length direction Y is sewn to the first support part 20 extending in the width direction X, so the first support part 20 does not slip down. Therefore, compared to when the highly elastic direction is arranged in the length direction Y, a stronger pressure is applied to the wearer's crotch area, and a stronger force acts to pull the pelvis up from below. This is particularly useful for people with lowered pelvic organs. Since loosening of the pelvis can cause the pelvic organs to drop without being supported by the pelvic floor muscles, the lowered pelvic organs can be pulled up by pulling the pelvic floor muscles up from below. In addition, when the second support part 30 is positioned in this manner, pressure is applied to the inside from the front (abdominal side) of the wearer's torso, as well as from the back (buttocks side), so that pressure is applied to the wearer's groin area not only from below to above, but also inward, which also serves to prevent the pelvic floor muscles, which have been pulled upward, from dropping.

[0051] It is preferable to use multiple layers of fabric sewn together at the periphery for the second support part 30. When two layers of fabric are used, stretch in the body length direction Y is more restricted than when a single layer of fabric is used, and a stronger force acts to pull the pelvis upward from below.

[0052] The second support part 30 may be sewn to the bottom body 10 at a position 30t where the bottom body 10 is folded from the front body side to the back body side (the position of the lower end of the center part of the bottom body 10 in the width direction X). Since the second support part 30 is folded back near the boundary between the front body and the back body, a force pulling it upward acts on the wearer's crotch area as a fulcrum when worn. Therefore, even if the second support part 30 is sewn near this boundary, the stitching does not inhibit the stretch in the length direction Y, and it is possible to prevent the second support part 30 from shifting left and right when worn.

[0053] The second support part 30 is preferably formed so that the short-side length in the region covering the crotch of the wearer when worn is within the range of 5 to 10 cm. If the short-side length of the approximately rectangular shape is made shorter, it may dig into the crotch of the wearer when worn, and the fit to the body may be reduced. On the other hand, if the short-side length of the approximately rectangular shape is made longer, the push-up of the wearer's pelvic floor muscles may be suppressed, and the pelvis may not be supported in a stable state.

[0054] 9 and 10, the second support part 31 has a substantially square-shaped front body region 311 arranged to overlap the front body side of the bottom body 10, and a back body region 312 arranged to overlap the rear body side of the bottom body 10 and formed with a wider upper part, and in a state where parts of the leg openings 102a, 102b of the bottom body 10 are lifted upward, one end of the front body region 311 is sewn to the lower end edge of the first support part 20 (front body central region 20a), and the other end of the back body region 302 is sewn to the lower end edge of the first support part 20 (rear body central region 20c and part of the rear body curved region 20d) together with the bottom body. In this way, it is preferable that the rear body region 312 is formed to expand in the body width direction X toward the upper side (the side sewn to the first support part 20 on the rear body side of the bottom body 10) so that the region covering the buttocks of the wearer when worn is wider than the region covering the crotch area. That is, as shown in Fig. 11, it is preferable that the area covering the buttocks of the wearer when worn is formed in an inverted trapezoid shape so as to cover almost the entire sacrum except for the upper part of the sacrum B4. Since the sacrum B4 has an inverted triangular shape (see Fig. 3), the second support part 31 can support the sacrum B4 by lifting it from below. Also, since the upper part of the sacrum B4 is supported by the first support part 20, the entire sacrum can be supported by the first support part 20 and the second support part 31. This provides a hip-up effect while guiding the pelvis to the correct inclination.

[0055] As shown in Figs. 9 and 10, the third support part 40 is made of the same fabric as the second support part 31, is formed in a trapezoid shape, is placed on the bottom body 10 in the same orientation as the second support part 31 is placed on the bottom body 10, and is continuous with the side sewn to the first support part 20, and is sewn to the upper edge of the waist opening 101a on the back side of the bottom body 10 (L3c indicates the sewing line). The left and right edges of the third support part 40 may be sewn to the bottom body 10 and the first support part 20 (L3a and L3b indicate the sewing lines). Although the third support part 40 may be made of one piece of fabric, it is preferable to use a piece of fabric made by stacking multiple pieces of fabric and sewing them together at their peripheries. In addition, the third support part 40 may be made of the same fabric as the second support part 30 shown in Figure 2, be continuous with the edge where the second support part 30 is sewn to the first support part 20, and be arranged on the bottom body 10 in the same orientation as the second support part 30 is arranged on the bottom body 10.

[0056] Since the second support part 31 has a length from the wearer's crotch to the sacrum at the rear body side of the bottom body 10, a force acts on the second support part 31 to cause it to slip down more than the front body side of the bottom body 10. This slipping down may affect not only the pressure of the second support part 31 but also the pressure of the first support part 20, and if the pressure of the first support part 20 weakens, it may not be possible to support the wearer's ilium and sacrum, and it may not be possible to guide the pelvis to the correct inclination. Therefore, by sewing the upper edge of the third support part 40 to the waist opening 101a, which is narrower around the waist than around the buttocks (L3c indicates the seam line), the third support part 40 is firmly held at the waist when worn, and slipping down can be prevented.

[0057] Furthermore, when a wearer puts on the bottom garment 1, the third support part 40 covers the back body central region 20c covering the upper part of the wearer's sacrum B4 and the region covering part of the wearer's lumbar vertebrae. If a fabric with lower stretchability in the weft direction than in the warp direction is used for the third support part 40 and this weft direction (the direction of lower stretchability) is arranged toward the body length direction Y, stretching in the body length direction Y is suppressed and pressure is applied to the inside of the wearer's body, making it possible to support not only the upper part of the wearer's sacrum but also part of the lumbar vertebrae.
