[0009] Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.
[0010] Figure 1 is an unfolded view of a garment 1, as seen from the back of the wearer, according to one embodiment of the present invention. Hereinafter, the top and bottom, left and right, and front and back of the garment 1 will be defined based on the wearer standing upright. Furthermore, the direction from the outer surface in the thickness direction toward the inside of the fabric will be defined as the inside, and the opposite direction as the outside, while the direction toward the outside in the width direction will be defined as the outside, and the direction toward the center in the width direction will be defined as the inside.
[0011] Referring to Figure 1, the garment 1 is formed of, for example, woven and / or knitted fabric. The garment 1 has at least a front panel 2 and a back panel 3, and may further have, for example, sleeves, a collar and / or a hood. The front panel 2 and the back panel 3 represent the parts that cover the front and back of the wearer 9, respectively, and the front panel 2 and the back panel 3 are separated on both sides in the width direction. The pre-sewing patterns that make up the garment 1 do not necessarily have to be formed to coincide with the division of the front panel and the back panel, the front panel and the back panel may include two or more patterns, or the front panel and the back panel may be formed integrally.
[0012] In this specification, the bust line BL, waist line WL, hip line HL, posterior axillary point 71, arm thigh line AC, and inferior angle point B1 of the scapula are defined in accordance with JIS L011:2006 (Body Terminology for Clothing). As shown in Figure 2, the bust line BL is the intersection of a horizontal plane passing through the center point of the nipple (also called the nipple point) and the body surface. The waist line WL is the intersection of a horizontal plane and the body surface at a point midway between the lowest end of the ribs and the ilium. The hip line HL is the intersection of a horizontal plane and the body surface at the posterior prominence of the buttocks, or the straight line connecting the left and right trochanteric points (the uppermost edge of the greater trochanter of the femur (the large projection on the upper outer side of the femur)). The posterior axillary point 71 is the point at the upper end of the posterior axillary fissure (the upper end of the crease in the armpit). The arm thigh line AC is the line at the base of the arm that passes through the acromion, shoulder point, anterior axilla, axilla, and posterior axilla, and is also called the arm base line. The inferior angle point of the scapula (hereinafter also called the inferior angle point) B1 is the point at the lowest edge of the scapula. The inferior angle point B1 roughly coincides with the vertical position of the bust line BL. Furthermore, the axillary point line 72 is the straight line connecting the left and right posterior axillary points 71. The lower bust line BL1 is a straight line parallel to the bust line BL and 30 mm below it. Body measurements are taken, for example, when the subject is standing upright with both arms hanging naturally, knees straight, both heels together, and toes slightly apart. Furthermore, the above lines and points may be the bust line BL, waist line WL, hip line HL, posterior axillary point 71, and inferior scapular angle point B1 of a mannequin (a mannequin manufactured by Nanairo Co., Ltd.: MD-20A (men's)) when the top garment 1 is fitted to the mannequin.
[0013] The upper garment 1 further includes a front insulation pack 4 positioned on the front body 2 and a rear insulation pack 5 positioned on the back body 3.
[0014] The front insulation pack 4 and the rear insulation pack 5 are constructed by enclosing a core material in woven and / or knitted fabric. The front insulation pack 4 and the rear insulation pack 5 are provided to enhance the heat retention of the outer garment 1.
[0015] The weave pattern of the woven fabric wrapping the core material and the knitting pattern of the knitted fabric are not particularly limited, and known weave patterns and knitting patterns can be adopted. Examples of the weave pattern of the woven fabric include plain weave, twill weave, and satin weave. Examples of the knitting pattern of the knitted fabric include plain knitting, rubber knitting, double knitting, and half knitting. The size of the gaps formed in the woven fabric or knitted fabric (the gaps between the yarns constituting the woven fabric or knitted fabric) is less than 0.5 mm in terms of the equivalent diameter of a circle (preferably 0.2 mm or less, more preferably 0.1 mm or less). From the viewpoint of preventing the core material from falling off, it is preferable to use a high-density woven fabric or a high-density knitted fabric as the woven fabric and the knitted fabric.
[0016] The core material is provided to enhance the heat retention performance of each heat retention pack 4, 5. As the core material, for example, fiber lumps such as down (feathers), feathers, cotton, and synthetic fibers can be used. The core material may be arranged between a plurality of woven fabrics or knitted fabrics, or a single woven fabric or knitted fabric may be folded and arranged therebetween. In either case, the core material will be entirely surrounded by the woven fabric or knitted fabric.
[0017] Prior to the description of the arrangement of each heat retention pack 4, 5, the sweating points and thermosensory points of the wearer 9 will be described.
[0018] First, an experiment for investigating the sweating points will be described. In this experiment, the distribution of the sweating amount of the subject was measured to investigate the sweating points. More specifically, the sweating amount of each part of the upper body of the human body was measured. In this experiment, the sweating amount was measured for each of the front center line block extending vertically along the center line CL in front of the subject, the rear center line block extending vertically along the center line CL on the back of the subject, the nipple line block extending vertically along the nipple line through the center line CL and substantially parallel to the center line CL in front of the subject, the scapular line block extending vertically along the scapular line through the lower scapular angle point B1 and substantially parallel to the center line CL on the back of the subject, and the side line block extending vertically along the center line CL through the lowermost end AC1 of the arm line AC on the side of the subject (see FIG. 2).
[0019] The method for measuring the distribution of sweating amount measures the distribution of sweating amount by the filter paper method. In the filter paper method described in this specification, a subject with a filter paper attached to the measurement location enters an artificial climate chamber. After the sweating amount of the subject stabilizes, the weight difference between the filter paper after 30 minutes (after the experiment ends) and the filter paper before the experiment is measured as the sweating amount. The environmental conditions were 37°C·50%RH (artificial climate chamber). The subjects were 10 males (5 in their 30s, 3 in their 40s, and 2 in their 50s), and the measurement locations were 30 locations on the right side of the upper body (one example is shown by circled marks in Figure 2) for verification.
[0020] From the above experiment, it was found that the sweating amount at the point where the center line CL and the bust line BL shown in Figure 2 intersect is the largest. Also, in the bust line BL extending in the width direction and the bust line BL region adjacent to the bust line BL, the sweating amount was the largest, and the sweating amount decreased as it moved away from the bust line BL region in the vertical direction. From the experimental results, it was found that the sweating points are the front center line block extending in the vertical direction, the rear center line block, on the bust line BL region, and the side line block (especially, the body side part 96 near the armpit).
[0021] Next, an experiment for investigating the warm sensation points will be described. In this experiment, the warm and cold sensations of the subjects were measured, and the experimental results of investigating the warm sensation points are shown. More specifically, the sensitivity of warm and cold sensations for each part of the upper body of the human body was measured.
[0022] The method for measuring warm and cold sensations measured the temperature sensation threshold of the upper body using a general-purpose warm and cold sensation threshold measuring device. The environmental conditions were 28°C·50%RH (artificial climate chamber). The subjects were 10 males (5 in their 30s, 3 in their 40s, and 2 in their 50s), and the measurement locations were 34 locations on the right side of the upper body (18 in the front and 16 in the back) to measure warm and cold sensations.
[0023] The above experiment revealed that different parts of the upper body have different sensitivity to temperature. In particular, on the front, sensitivity to temperature was high in the abdominal region R1, which extends from below the bust line BL region to the navel 97 as shown in Figure 2. On the other hand, sensitivity to temperature was low near the midline CL and above the bust line BL. On the back, sensitivity to temperature was high in the subscapular region R2, which is below the bust line BL region and / or below the scapula B, and between the midline CL in the width direction and the side of the body 96. On the other hand, sensitivity to temperature was low near the midline CL and in the axillary line 72 region, which extends in the width direction from above the bust line BL along the posterior axilla 71. Therefore, it was found that the temperature sensitivity points are the abdominal region R1 on the front and the subscapular region R2 on the back.
[0024] The abdominal region R1 is the area that extends downward from near the waistline WL towards the hipline HL, encompassing the flanks and navel 97.
[0025] The scapular inferior region R2 has an upper region R21 located vertically between the bust line BL and the axillary line 72 and horizontally near the midpoint between the center line CL and the side of the body 96; an intermediate region R22 extending downward from the upper region R21 and horizontally laterally to the center line CL, extending from the bust line BL to the waistline WL; and a lower region R23 extending downward from the intermediate region R22 and located between the waistline WL and the hip line HL. The upper region R21 is located on the side of the center line CL than the side of the body 96.
[0026] Based on the above results, it is preferable that, in this embodiment, the upper garment 1 does not have the heat-retaining packs 4 and 5 placed at the aforementioned sweating points where sweating is high and stuffiness is likely to occur, while the heat-retaining packs 4 and 5 are placed at the aforementioned warming points where the sensitivity to temperature is high.
[0027] The arrangement of the thermal insulation packs 4 and 5 in this embodiment will be described with reference to Figures 3 and 4. Figure 3 is an unfolded view of the back of the garment as seen from the back of the wearer. As shown in Figure 3, the back thermal insulation pack 5 has a pair of left and right first back thermal insulation packs 51 and 52 and a pair of left and right second back thermal insulation packs 53 and 54, which are arranged on both sides of the center line CL in the width direction of the back of the garment 3.
[0028] Each of the rear insulation packs 51, 52, 53, and 54 is positioned on the back of the garment 3 so as to face the wearer 9. Each of the rear insulation packs 51, 52, 53, and 54 is constructed by enclosing the filling material in a woven or knitted fabric, so that each of the rear insulation packs 51, 52, 53, and 54 expands toward the wearer 9, thereby increasing the degree of contact with the wearer 9.
[0029] The pair of left and right first rear insulation packs 51 and 52 each consist of a first left rear insulation pack 51 located to the left of the center line CL and a first right rear insulation pack 52 located to the right. The first left rear insulation pack 51 and the first right rear insulation pack 52 are each positioned in the upper portion of the lower scapular region R2 of the wearer.
[0030] The pair of left and right first rear insulation packs 51 and 52 are positioned vertically between the vicinity of the bust line BL and the waist line WL, and horizontally beyond the center line CL and horizontally inside the side of the body 96.
[0031] More specifically, the pair of left and right first rear insulation packs 51, 52 are positioned below the axillary line 72 connecting the left and right rear axillary points 71 of the wearer. The pair of left and right first rear insulation packs 51, 52 as a whole are positioned below the bust line BL.
[0032] The uppermost parts 51f and 52f of the pair of left and right first rear insulation packs 51 and 52 are positioned between the posterior axillary point 71 and the lower bust line BL1. As mentioned above, the lower bust line BL1 is a straight line parallel to the bust line BL and is spaced 30 mm below it. The uppermost parts 51f and 52f are the portions of the pair of left and right first rear insulation packs 51 and 52 that are located above the lower bust line BL1. In this embodiment, at least a portion of the uppermost parts 51f and 52f are positioned to overlap with the upper region R21 in the lower scapula region R2.
[0033] In this embodiment, the uppermost parts 51f and 52f of the pair of left and right first rear insulation packs 51 and 52 are positioned between the posterior axillary point 71 and the bust line BL.
[0034] As shown in the enlarged view of Figure 3, the ratio of the area S2 of the uppermost parts 51f and 52f to the area S1 of the first rear insulation packs 51 and 52 should be between 5% and 40%, and in this embodiment, it is set to 34%. The width W1 of the lower edge of the uppermost parts 51f and 52f (on the bust line BL1) should be between 55mm and 100mm, and in this embodiment, it is set to 90mm. The height H1 of the uppermost parts 51f and 52f should be between 20mm and 70mm, and in this embodiment, it is set to 60mm.
[0035] The pair of left and right first rear insulation packs 51, 52 are positioned, for example, at least adjacent to the lower part of the scapula B. The ratio of the vertical distance L2 from the bust line BL to the lowest part 51g, 52g of the pair of left and right first rear insulation packs 51, 52 to the vertical distance L1 from the inferior angle point B1 of the scapula B to the waistline WL may be 50% or more and 80% or less. In general, the bust line BL roughly coincides with the vertical position of the inferior angle point B1.
[0036] In this embodiment, the left and right pair of first rear insulation packs 51 and 52 each have a substantially polygonal shape with a long axis and a short axis. The left and right pair of first rear insulation packs 51 and 52 are arranged so that their long axes are inclined upward toward the inside in the width direction.
[0037] Each pair of left and right first rear insulation packs 51, 52 has upper edges 51a, 52a that incline upward toward the inside in the width direction, inner edges 51b, 52b that extend downward from the inner ends of the upper edges 51a, 52a, lower edges 51c, 52c that incline downward toward the outside in the width direction from the lower ends of the inner edges 51b, 52b, lower outer edges 51d, 52d that incline upward toward the outside in the width direction from the outer ends of the lower edges 51c, 52c, and upper outer edges 51e, 52e that incline upward toward the inside in the width direction from the upper ends of the lower outer edges 51d, 52d.
[0038] Between each edge, there are first to fifth corners P1 to 5. Specifically, there is a first corner P1 between the upper edges 51a, 52a and the inner edges 51b, 52b, a second corner P2 between the inner edges 51b, 52b and the lower edges 51c, 52c, a third corner P3 between the lower edges 51c, 52c and the lower outer edges 51d, 52d, a fourth corner P4 between the lower outer edges 51d, 52d and the upper outer edges 51e, 52e, and a fifth corner P5 between the upper outer edges 51e, 52e and the upper edges 51a, 52a. In this embodiment, each corner may have a vertex where adjacent edges intersect, as in the first corner P1, or it may be formed in an arc shape that smoothly connects adjacent edges, as in the second to fifth corners.
[0039] In this embodiment, the uppermost 51f, 52f correspond to the first corner P1, and the lowermost 51g, 52g correspond to the third corner P3. The first corner P1 is located inward in the width direction and above the third corner P3. In this embodiment, the long axis is the straight line connecting the uppermost first corner P1 and the lowermost third corner P3 among the multiple corners P1 to 5 between the edges of the left and right pair of first rear insulation packs 51, 52.
[0040] The separation distance D1 between the first left rear insulation pack 51 and the first right rear insulation pack 52 is preferably 100 mm or more and 130 mm or less, and in this embodiment it is set to 120 mm. In this embodiment, the separation distance D1 is the distance between the inner edges 51b and 52b of the first left rear insulation pack 51 and the first right rear insulation pack 52, and refers to the shortest distance between the first left rear insulation pack 51 and the first right rear insulation pack 52. By arranging the first left rear insulation pack 51 and the first right rear insulation pack 52 spaced apart, a first air passage 61 extending vertically along the center line CL is formed between the two rear insulation packs 51 and 52.
[0041] The pair of second posterior insulation packs 53 and 54 consist of a second left posterior insulation pack 53 located to the left of the center line CL and a second right posterior insulation pack 54 located to the right. The second left posterior insulation pack 53 and the second right posterior insulation pack 54 are each located below the pair of first posterior insulation packs 51 and 52, and are spaced apart from the first posterior insulation packs 51 and 52. The second left posterior insulation pack 53 and the second right posterior insulation pack 54 are each positioned in the lower portion of the lower scapular region R2.
[0042] The pair of second rear insulation packs 53 and 54 are positioned vertically between the waistline WL and the hipline HL, and horizontally beyond the centerline CL and generally inside the side of the body 96.
[0043] The left and right pair of second rear insulation packs 53, 54 have upper edges 53a, 54a that incline upward toward the inside in the width direction, upper inner edges 53b, 54b that incline downward toward the inside in the width direction from the upper ends of the upper edges 53a, 54a, lower inner edges 53c, 54c that extend downward from the lower ends of the upper inner edges 53b, 54b, lower edges 53d, 54d that incline upward toward the outside in the width direction from the lower ends of the lower inner edges 53c, 54c, and outer edges 53e, 54e that incline upward toward the outside in the width direction from the outer ends of the lower edges 53d, 54d.
[0044] The separation distance D2 between the second left rear insulation pack 53 and the second right rear insulation pack 54 is preferably 50 mm or more and 130 mm or less, and in this embodiment it is set to 120 mm. In this embodiment, the separation distance D2 is the distance between the lower inner edges 53c and 54c of the second left rear insulation pack 53 and the second right rear insulation pack 54, and refers to the shortest distance between the second left rear insulation pack 53 and the second right rear insulation pack 54. By arranging the second left rear insulation pack 53 and the second right rear insulation pack 54 spaced apart, a second air passage 62 is formed between the two rear insulation packs 53 and 54, extending vertically along the center line CL.
[0045] The second air passage 62 and the first air passage 61 are positioned so that their widthwise positions overlap. As a result, air passages 61 and 62 extending vertically along the center line CL are provided in the widthwise center of the back panel 3.
[0046] The upper edges 53a and 54a of the second rear insulation packs 53 and 54 are positioned to face the lower edges 51c and 52c of the first rear insulation packs 51 and 52, respectively. A gap is provided between each upper edge 53a and 54a and each lower edge 51c and 52c. The separation distance D3 between each upper edge 53a and 54a and each lower edge 51c and 52c is preferably 40 mm to 90 mm, and in this embodiment, it is set to 50 mm. As a result, a widthwise air passage 63 is formed between the first left and right rear insulation packs 51 and 52 and the second left and right rear insulation packs 53 and 54, which extends in the width direction and does not contain any insulation packs.
[0047] As shown in Figure 4, the upper edges 51a, 52a and lower edges 51c, 52c of the first rear insulation packs 51, 52, and the upper edges 53a, 54a and lower edges 53d, 54d of the second rear insulation packs 53, 54, extend in the width direction so as to connect the air passages 61, 62 to the side of the body 96.
[0048] The back panel 3 is provided with a ventilation opening 31 between the left and right first rear insulation packs 51, 52 and at least near the neckline 98. The ventilation opening 31 only needs to have a configuration that connects the internal space and the external space of the upper garment 1, and may be, for example, an opening formed of mesh or perforations provided between the left and right first rear insulation packs 51, 52. Alternatively, it may be formed to create a space between the wearer's back neckline 98 and the neckline 32 of the upper garment 1, and this space may be configured to communicate with air passages 61, 62. Preferably, the ventilation opening 31 is positioned at least above the bustline BL.
[0049] Figure 4 is an unfolded view of the front of the garment as seen from the front of the wearer. As shown in Figure 3, the top 1 has a pair of front insulation packs 41 and 42, which are provided on the front of the garment 2 and are positioned on both sides of the center line CL in the width direction.
[0050] Each front insulation pack 41, 42 is positioned on the front of the garment 2 so as to face the wearer. Each front insulation pack 41, 42 is constructed by enclosing a filling material in woven or knitted fabric, so that each front insulation pack 41, 42 expands toward the wearer, increasing the degree of contact with the wearer.
[0051] The pair of front insulation packs 41 and 42 consist of a left front insulation pack 41 positioned on the left side and a right front insulation pack 42 positioned on the right side. The front insulation packs 41 and 42 are positioned vertically between the waistline WL, which corresponds to the lower part of the ribs 99, and the hipline HL, and horizontally beyond the centerline CL and generally horizontally inward from the side of the body 96.
[0052] The front insulation packs 41 and 42 have upper edges 41a and 42a that slope downward toward the inside in the width direction, upper inner edges 41b and 42b that slope downward toward the inside in the width direction from the upper ends of the upper edges 41a and 42a, lower inner edges 41c and 42c that extend downward toward the outside in the width direction from the lower ends of the upper inner edges 41b and 42b, lower edges 41d and 42d that slope upward toward the outside in the width direction from the lower ends of the lower inner edges 41c and 42c, lower outer edges 41e and 42e that slope upward toward the outside in the width direction from the outer ends of the lower edges 41d and 42d, and upper outer edges 41f and 42g that extend upward toward the inside in the width direction from the upper ends of the lower outer edges 41e and 42e.
[0053] The separation distance D4 between the left and right pair of front insulation packs 41 and 42 is preferably 100 mm or more and 160 mm or less, and in this embodiment it is set to 120 mm. In this embodiment, the separation distance D4 is the distance between the lower inner edges 41c and 42c of the left and right pair of front insulation packs 41 and 42, and refers to the shortest distance between the left and right pair of front insulation packs 41 and 42. Because the left and right pair of front insulation packs 41 and 42 are separated, a front air passage 64 is formed between the two front insulation packs 41 and 42 that extends in the vertical direction and does not have an insulation pack placed therein.
[0054] The upper garment 1 according to this embodiment provides the following effects.
[0055] The garment 1, which has a front panel 2 and a back panel 3, has a pair of left and right first rear insulation packs 51, 52 on either side of the center line CL in the width direction of the back panel 3. The first rear insulation packs 51, 52 are located below the wearer's 9 rear armpit point 71, and the uppermost part 51f of the first rear insulation packs is positioned between the rear armpit point 71 and the lower bust line BL1, which is 30 mm below the bust line BL and parallel to the bust line BL.
[0056] This configuration avoids the center line CL and bust line BL in the width direction, which are sweating points, while warming the lower scapular region R2 below the scapula B, which is one of the warming points. This ensures warmth while suppressing stuffiness. In particular, by positioning the uppermost part 51 between the posterior axillary point 71 and the lower bust line BL1, the warming points that spread along the lower bust line BL1 can be effectively warmed.
[0057] The uppermost part 51f of the first post-insulation pack is positioned between the posterior axillary point 71 and the bust line BL.
[0058] According to this configuration, for example, the uppermost part 51f is positioned to correspond to the thermoreceptor points (upper region R21) included in the bust line BL, which is a sweating point overall (so as to include the upper region R21). This allows for effective warming of the thermoreceptor points while minimizing the size of the first rear insulation packs 51 and 52 positioned at the sweating point.
[0059] The first rear insulation packs 51 and 52 are positioned adjacent to the lower part of the scapula B, at least in part.
[0060] With this configuration, the first rear insulation packs 51 and 52 can warm the lower scapular region R2 (below scapula B), which is a point of warmth.
[0061] The uppermost parts 51f and 52f of the first rear insulation packs 51 and 52 are located inward in the width direction compared to the lowermost parts 51g and 52g of the first rear insulation packs 51 and 52.
[0062] With this configuration, the first rear insulation packs 51 and 52 are inclined upward toward the inside in the width direction, making it easier to guide the airflow inside the garment 1 from the outside in the width direction toward the center and upward along the inclination of the first rear insulation packs 51 and 52. For example, it is easier to direct air from the bust line BL and the side of the body 96 near the armpits, which are points where sweating occurs, toward the center in the width direction.
[0063] It further includes second rear insulation packs 53 and 55 located below the first rear insulation packs 51 and 52 and spaced apart from the first rear insulation packs 51 and 52.
[0064] With this configuration, compared to the case where only the first rear insulation packs 51 and 52 are used, the rear insulation pack 5 is divided vertically, making it less likely to hinder the wearer's movements. An air passage 63 extending in the width direction can be provided between the first rear insulation packs 51 and 52 and the second rear insulation packs 53 and 54, making it easier to direct air from sweating points towards the center in the width direction.
[0065] The upper edges 53a and 54a of the second rear insulation packs 53 and 54 are inclined upward toward the inside in the width direction.
[0066] With this configuration, the air passage 63 between the first rear insulation packs 51, 52 and the second rear insulation packs 53, 54 is inclined upward from the outside in the width direction toward the inside (center line CL), making it easier to direct the air from the sweating point toward the inside and upward in the width direction.
[0067] The front panel 2 is provided with front insulation packs 41 and 42 that extend downward from the lower part of the ribs 99.
[0068] With this configuration, the front insulation packs 41 and 42 can warm the area near the lower part of the ribs 99 on the front side of the wearer 9 (abdominal region R1), which is one of the temperature-sensing points.
[0069] The back panel 3 is provided with ventilation openings 31 between the pair of left and right first rear insulation packs 51, 52 and at least near the neckline 98.
[0070] With this configuration, air that flows into the center in the width direction can be swept away from the vent 31 near the neck area 98.
[0071] In this embodiment, an example has been described in which the rear insulation pack 5 is composed of a pair of left and right first rear insulation packs 51, 52 and second rear insulation packs 53, 54. However, the embodiment is not limited to this, and as shown in the first modified example in Figure 5, the rear insulation pack 5 may also include a pair of left and right third rear insulation packs 55, 56 that are located above the bust line BL, which is the sweating point, and are spaced apart from the first rear insulation packs 51, 52.
[0072] The pair of left and right third rear insulation packs 55 and 56 consist of a third left rear insulation pack 55 located to the left of the center line CL and a third right rear insulation pack 56 located to the right. The third left rear insulation pack 55 and the third right rear insulation pack 56 are located above the pair of left and right first rear insulation packs 51 and 52, and are spaced apart from the first rear insulation packs 51 and 52.
[0073] The pair of left and right third rear insulation packs 55, 56 are positioned vertically between the neckline 32 and the bust line BL, and horizontally outside the center line CL and generally inside the side of the body 96.
[0074] The left and right pair of third rear insulation packs 55, 56 have upper edges 55a, 56a that incline upward toward the inside in the width direction, upper inner edges 55b, 56b that incline downward toward the inside in the width direction from the upper ends of the upper edges 55a, 56a, lower inner edges 55c, 56c that incline downward toward the outside in the width direction from the lower ends of the upper inner edges 55b, 56b, lower edges 55d, 56d that incline downward toward the outside in the width direction from the lower ends of the lower inner edges 55c, 56c, and outer edges 55e, 56e that incline upward toward the outside in the width direction from the outer ends of the lower edges 55d, 56d.
[0075] The separation distance D5 between the third left rear insulation pack 55 and the third right rear insulation pack 56 is preferably 90 mm or more and 120 mm or less, and in this embodiment it is set to 95 mm. In this embodiment, the separation distance D5 is the distance between the lower inner edges 55c, 56c of the third left rear insulation pack 55 and the third right rear insulation pack 56, and refers to the shortest distance between the third left rear insulation pack 55 and the third right rear insulation pack 56. By arranging the third left rear insulation pack 55 and the third right rear insulation pack 56 spaced apart, a second air passage 64 is formed between the two rear insulation packs 55 and 56, extending vertically along the center line CL.
[0076] The third air passage 64 and the first air passage 61 are positioned so that their widthwise positions overlap. As a result, air passages 61, 62, and 64 extending vertically along the center line CL are provided in the widthwise center of the back panel 3.
[0077] The lower edges 55d and 56d of the third rear insulation packs 55 and 56 are positioned to face the upper edges 51a and 52a of the first rear insulation packs 51 and 52, respectively. A gap is provided between each lower edge 55d and 56d and each upper edge 51a and 52a. The separation distance D6 between each lower edge 55d and 56d and each upper edge 51a and 52a is preferably 50 mm or more and 70 mm or less, and in this embodiment, it is set to 60 mm. By positioning each lower edge 55d and 56d and each upper edge 51a and 52a at a distance from each other, a widthwise air passage 65 is formed between the first rear insulation packs 51 and 52 and the third rear insulation packs 55 and 56, which extends in the width direction and does not contain an insulation pack.
[0078] Since the pair of left and right third rear insulation packs 55 and 56 are positioned above the bust line BL, the pair of left and right third rear insulation packs 55 and 56 can warm the shoulder area, which is located above the pair of left and right first rear insulation packs 51 and 52. For example, when applied to ski outerwear, where heat retention is important, the provision of the third rear insulation packs 55 and 56 enhances the heat retention performance.
[0079] In this embodiment, a configuration has been described in which the left and right pairs of 1st to 3rd rear insulation packs 51, 52, 53, 54, 55, 56 and front insulation packs 41, 42 are polygonal in shape. However, the embodiment is not limited to this, and each insulation pack may be elliptical or semicircular in shape.
[0080] In this embodiment, the insulation pack has been described as comprising first to third rear insulation packs 51, 52, 53, 54, 55, 56 and front insulation packs 41, 42, but it is not limited to this configuration. Only one of the first to third rear insulation packs 51, 52, 53, 54, 55, 56 and front insulation packs 41, 42 may be provided, or several may be combined.
[0081] In this embodiment, the first rear insulation packs 51 and 52 have been described as having an uppermost portion 51f and 52f corresponding to the first corner portion P1, and the lowermost portion 51g and 52g corresponding to the third corner portion P3, but the invention is not limited to this. As shown in the second modified example in Figure 6, the first rear insulation packs 151 and 152 include an upper edge portion 151a, an upper inner edge portion 151b, a lower inner edge portion 151c, a lower edge portion 151d, a lower outer edge portion 151e, an upper outer edge portion 151f, and the first to sixth corner portions P11, P12, P13, P14, P15, and P16 between each edge portion, wherein the upper edge portion 151a and the lower edge portion 151d are parallel along the width direction, and the width direction positions of the upper edge portion 151a and the lower edge portion 151d may overlap (see W3 in Figure 6). In this case, it is sufficient that the innermost part of the uppermost 151g (point P11 in this embodiment) is located inside the innermost part of the lowermost 151h (point P13 in this embodiment).
[0082] In this embodiment, a configuration has been described in which the spacing distance between the first and second air passages 61 and 62 in the width direction is approximately the same, but the configuration is not limited to this, and they may have different widths. For example, the first air passage 61 may be narrower or wider than the second air passage 62.
[0083] In this embodiment, a configuration has been described in which the thermal insulation packs 4 and 5 are placed on the inside (wearer side) of the front body 2 and / or back body 3, but the invention is not limited to this configuration. The thermal insulation packs 4 and 5 may be sewn to the front body 2 and / or back body 3 in a thermal insulation pack placement area formed by cutting out a part of the front body 2 and / or back body 3 to the shape of the corresponding thermal insulation pack 4 and 5.
