Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The present invention relates to men's pants that store and hold the penis and scrotum separately. [Background technology]

[0002] Because the male genitalia are very delicate, underwear must have functionality suited to the male genitalia. The crotch area of ​​boxer shorts tends to get very sweaty, which can cause the scrotum to heat up and lead to a decline in male sexual function. Furthermore, the scrotum needs to be held down to a certain extent by the effects of gravity and vibrations during exercise, which can cause blood vessels to stretch and lead to poor circulation. However, because the blood vessels in the male genitalia are very thin, pressure puts a great strain on the genitalia. From this perspective, various proposals have been made to store the penis and scrotum separately and comfortably without straining the scrotum.

[0003] For example, Patent Document 1 discloses functional men's pants in which the front part of the pants is formed with a penile sac made of a pair of left and right penile members, and a scrotal sac made of a pair of left and right scrotal members, and by providing a step where the penile sacs are sewn together, it is possible to store the penis separately in the penile sac and the scrotum separately in the scrotal sac. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0004] [Patent Document 1] Special Publication No. 2022-522512 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0005] However, in the above-mentioned men's functional pants, the upper end of the penis portion of the front section is sewn parallel to the waistband member, creating a step near the boundary between the penis and the scrotum. However, with this configuration, if the pants are designed to be open at the front, which is suitable for everyday use such as when relieving oneself, the three-dimensional structure for holding the penis upward will collapse. Even if the pants are designed to be open at the front, the penis retention performance will be reduced, and there will be the problem that the penis may be accidentally exposed through the open front in unexpected situations.

[0006] Therefore, the present invention has been made in consideration of the above-mentioned problems, and aims to provide men's pants that can store the penis and scrotum separately, can maintain the penis retention function, and will not accidentally expose the penis through the front opening even when the pants are designed to open at the front. [Means for solving the problem]

[0007] In order to solve the above problems, the men's pants of the present invention are men's pants that store and hold the penis and scrotum separately, and are characterized by having a front flap that is open at the front so that the penis can be exposed, and the front flap comprising a penis holding portion that holds the penis facing upward, a scrotum holding portion that holds the scrotum, and a boundary portion that separates the penis holding portion from the scrotum holding portion, which is made of an elastic member that runs across the vertical center of the front flap.

[0008] Here, the penis holding part preferably has a gathered part formed by gathering the upper end of the penis holding part at the center in the width direction.

[0009] Furthermore, the scrotal holding part preferably has an inwardly curved part that curves inward at the lower end of the scrotal holding part.

[0010] Furthermore, it is more preferable that the grain of the fabric in the front flap portion is horizontal and the grain of the fabric in other portions is vertical. [Effects of the Invention]

[0011] According to the men's pants of the present invention, elastic members are sewn horizontally from the left and right ends near the vertical center of the front flap to separate the portion that holds the penis upward and the portion that holds the scrotum. This allows the fabric constituting the front flap to easily conform to the boundary between the penis and the scrotum, improving the penis-holding function. Furthermore, a gathered portion 13 is formed by gathering the upper end of the front flap at the center of the width, creating a structure that envelops and holds the penis. Even with a front-opening design, the penis can be held without being accidentally exposed through the front opening. Furthermore, the lower end of the portion that holds the scrotum is configured to curve inward, and this curved portion lifts and holds the back of the scrotum when worn, providing a comfortable wearing environment without a feeling of pressure on the scrotum. [Brief explanation of the drawings]

[0012] [Figure 1] 1 is a front view of men's pants according to an embodiment of the present invention. [Figure 2] FIG. 2 is a development view showing the men's pants disassembled into patterns that make up the pants. [Figure 3] FIG. 1 is a side cross-sectional view of men's pants when worn. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0013] Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

[0014] FIG. 1 is a front view of men's pants according to the present embodiment.

[0015] The men's pants 1 according to this embodiment are front-opening men's pants that store and hold the penis and scrotum separately. The men's pants 1 include a front flap 10, a right front side body section 20, a left front side body section 30, a back body section 40, and an elastic waistband 50.

[0016] The front flap 10 is the part that separates and houses the penis and scrotum, and is composed of a penis holding portion 11 that holds the penis upward and a scrotum holding portion 12 that holds the scrotum. The front of the front flap 10 is open at the front so that the penis can be exposed. The grain of the fabric of the front flap 10 is horizontal, while the grain of the fabric of the right front side body 20, left front side body 30, and back body 40 is vertical.

[0017] The penis holding part 11 has a gathered part 13 at its upper end near the boundary with the waist rubber 50. The gathered part 13 is formed by gathering the upper end of the penis holding part 11 toward the center in the width direction to form pleats.

[0018] The penis holding portion 11 and the scrotum holding portion 12 are separated by a boundary portion 14 that runs horizontally across the longitudinal center of the front flap portion 10. The boundary portion 14 is preferably made of stretchable rubber, but any elastic material will do, and may be made of, for example, stitches sewn with stretchable elastic thread. The intersection of the widthwise centerline of the front flap portion 10 and the boundary portion 14 is the central intersection point 60.

[0019] FIG. 2 is a development view showing men's pants 1 disassembled into constituent patterns.

[0020] The patterns that make up men's pants 1 will be described below, along with the manufacturing procedure for men's pants 1.

[0021] The front flap 10 is composed of a right front flap outer side 10a, a left front flap outer side 10b, a right front flap skin side 10c, and a left front flap skin side 10d. The parts that make up the front flap 10 include penis holding parts 11a, 11b, 11c, and 11d that form the penis holding part 11, and scrotum holding parts 12a, 12b, 12c, and 12d that form the scrotum holding part 12. The areas indicated by thick lines at the top ends of the parts that make up the front flap 10 are gather formation areas 13a, 13b, 13c, and 13d where the gathered part 13 is formed.

[0022] The elastics 14a and 14d that make up the boundary 14 are wrapped around and sewn under tension on the right front fly outer side 10a and the left front fly skin side 10d. The elastic 14a is wrapped around the inside (skin side) of the right front fly outer side 10a, and the elastic 14d is wrapped around the outside (outside) of the left front fly skin side 10d.

[0023] When the right front flap front side 10a and the left front flap front side 10b are sewn together, the straight sections 16a, 16b overlap at the front of the penis holding parts 11a, 11b, the outwardly curved sections 17a, 17b overlap at the front of the rubber 14a that forms the boundary between the penis holding parts 11a, 11b and the scrotum holding parts 12a, 12b, and the inwardly curved sections 15a, 15b overlap at the front of the rear ends of the scrotum holding parts 12a, 12b. The part where the left and right front flap front sides are connected in this way is the front flap front part.

[0024] When right plait skin side 10c and left plait skin side 10d are sewn together, straight sections 16c, 16d overlap at the front of penis holding parts 11c, 11d, outwardly curved sections 17c, 17d overlap at the front of rubber 14d, which forms the boundary between penis holding parts 11c, 11d and scrotum holding parts 12c, 12d, and inwardly curved sections 15c, 15d overlap at the front of the rear ends of scrotum holding parts 12c, 12d. The parts with the left and right plait skin sides connected in this way are called plait skin side parts.

[0025] The fly front side part and the fly skin side part are overlapped, and rubber 14a and rubber 14d, including the left fly front side 10b and right fly skin side 10c without rubber, are pressed together through the central intersection 60 to form fly portion 10. At this time, rubber 14a and rubber 14d are sandwiched between the fly front side part and the fly skin side part, so boundary portion 14 is sealed inside fly portion 10 and is not exposed to the surface.

[0026] The upper end of the formed front part 10 is gathered toward the center in the width direction to form pleats, thereby forming a gathered part 13.

[0027] Thereafter, the right side body connection parts 18a, 18c of the front flap part 10 are sewn together with the front flap connection part 21 of the right front side body part 20, and the left side body connection parts 18b, 18d are sewn together with the front flap connection part 31 of the left front side body part 30 to form the front body part.

[0028] This connects the crotch joints 19a, 19c to the crotch 23 of the right front side body 20, and connects the crotch joints 19b, 19d to the crotch 33 of the left front side body 30, forming the crotch of the front body.

[0029] Furthermore, when sewing the left and right ends of the front flap 10 to attach it, sewing stretchable rubber or elastic thread together will bring the front flap 10 into close contact with the wearer's body, making it easier for the fabric constituting the front flap 10 to fit the crotch area, and further increasing the holding power of the penis and scrotum.

[0030] Next, the crotch of the front body is sewn together with the crotch 43 of the back body 40. At this time, the crotch 43 of the back body 40 is slightly stretched and sewn. Then, the back body connection part 22 of the front body is sewn together with the front body connection part 41 of the back body 40, and the back body connection part 32 of the front body is sewn together with the front body connection part 42 of the back body 40, to form the body.

[0031] Finally, the waist elastic band that has been joined together to form a loop is sewn to the waist portion of the body to obtain men's pants 1.

[0032] FIG. 3 is a side cross-sectional view of men's pants 1 when worn.

[0033] As shown in Figure 3, men's underwear 1 stores and holds penis A in penis holding portion 11, and stores and holds scrotum B in scrotum holding portion 12, so that penis A and scrotum B are stored and held separately.

[0034] The frontal part 10 is divided into the penis holding part 11 and the scrotum holding part 12 by a boundary part 14 formed by sewing rubber to the left and right ends of the frontal part 10. This boundary part 14 brings the straight part 16 of the frontal part 10 into close contact with the penis A and the outer curved part 17 into close contact with the scrotum B, allowing the fabric constituting the frontal part 10 to fit along the crotch area, thereby increasing the holding power of the penis A in the penis holding part 11 and the holding power of the penis B in the scrotum holding part 12.

[0035] When implementing a front-opening design that stores the penis and scrotum separately, it is necessary to minimize the overlap of the fabric in the front flap, but if the overlap is small, the penis may be accidentally exposed through the front opening. In this regard, in men's pants 1, the upper end of the front flap 10, i.e., the upper end of the penis holding portion 11, near the boundary with the waist elastic 50, is gathered in the center of the width to form a gathered portion 13, leaving room in the fabric of the front flap 10 to encase and hold the penis A. Therefore, even if the overlap of the fabric of the front flap 10 is small, the penis A will not be accidentally exposed.

[0036] In addition, the grain of the fabric of front part 10 is horizontal and stretches up and down, while the other parts are vertical, making penis holding part 11 stretch easily vertically but difficult to stretch horizontally. This allows penis holding part 11 to reduce lateral shaking of penis A, i.e., shaking from side to side, and also gives it vertical stretchability that is suitable for the expansion and contraction of penis A, improving its penis holding function.

[0037] An inwardly curved inner curved portion 15 is formed at the lower end of the scrotal holding portion 12. That is, the scrotal holding portion 12 is configured so that the outwardly curved outer curved portion 17 and the inwardly curved inner curved portion 15 are connected in an S-shape. The inner curved portion 15 is formed by sewing the lower end of the scrotal holding portion 12 (the rear end from the wearer's perspective) with an inward curve, and is structured to lift the back side of the scrotum B when worn. This structure holds the scrotum B without succumbing to gravity and minimizes swaying of the scrotum B, improving the scrotal holding function of the scrotal holding portion 12. Furthermore, by lifting the back side of the scrotum B, the thighs and scrotum B do not come into contact with each other, making it comfortable to wear, preventing stuffiness in the groin area, and reducing the risk of overheating of the scrotum. Furthermore, since the scrotum B is not held down by being pressed down, but rather is held up by lifting and supporting the back side of the scrotum B, there is no feeling of pressure and it can be held without putting strain on the scrotum B.

[0038] In this way, the men's pants 1 of this embodiment have a boundary 14 separating the penis holding portion 11 and the scrotum holding portion by sewing elastic members laterally from the left and right ends near the vertical center of the front flap 10. This allows the fabric constituting the front flap 10 to easily conform to the crotch area, improving its ability to separate and hold the penis and scrotum. Furthermore, a gathered portion 13 is formed by gathering the upper end of the penis holding portion 11 at the center of its width, creating a structure that envelops and holds the penis, preventing inadvertent exposure even when the pants are open at the front. Furthermore, the grain of the fabric of the front flap 10 is horizontal, while the grain of the fabric of the other parts is vertical, reducing lateral movement of the penis and providing excellent penis-holding functionality that is also suitable for penis expansion and contraction. The lower end of the scrotal holder 12 is provided with an inwardly curved section 15, which lifts and holds the back of the scrotum when worn, so that it does not press down on the scrotum and does not feel oppressive, providing an excellent wearing experience. Furthermore, by lifting the back of the scrotum, the thighs and scrotum B do not come into contact, making it comfortable to wear and preventing stuffiness in the groin area and making it less likely for the scrotum to heat up.

[0039] The above describes the men's pants according to the present invention based on an embodiment, but the present invention is not limited to this. Various design modifications are possible as long as the object of the present invention can be achieved and the gist of the invention is not deviated from, and all of these are included within the scope of the present invention.
