Description

[Technical field]

[0001] This invention relates to a connecting structure that can be applied to kimonos that can be worn freely, or Japanese clothing such as happi coats and yukatas, and that attaches the main body worn on the user's upper body to parts such as sleeves and collars. [Background technology]

[0002] An example of this type of conventional technology is described in Patent Document 1. Patent Document 1 discloses a kimono in which the sleeves can be exchanged between long-sleeved kimono and short-sleeved kimono, and the sleeves can be attached and detached using any of the following attachments and detachment members: zippers, hook-and-loop fasteners, snaps, buttons, or hooks. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0003] [Patent Document 1] JP 2005-23488 A Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0004] However, Patent Document 1 does not specifically disclose how the fasteners, hook-and-loop fasteners, snaps, buttons, and hooks are attached and how they are attached and detached. A typical method of attachment is to attach a removable member to the end of the sleeve of the main body and the end of the replacement sleeve, respectively, and connect the two ends. However, for example, if the main kimono is a reversible type, the end of the replacement sleeve that was below the end of the sleeve of the main body will be above the end of the sleeve of the main body when the kimono is turned inside out, changing the state of the connecting part. Therefore, it is desirable to prevent the state of the connecting part from changing when the sleeve of the main kimono is replaced or the hem is lengthened.

[0005] The present invention has been developed in consideration of such problems, and aims to provide a connecting structure for the parts that make up a kimono, which allows the parts to be easily replaced and in which the state of the connecting parts does not change after replacement. [Means for solving the problem]

[0006] To achieve the above object, the present invention has the following configuration.

[0007] (1) A connecting structure between a main body (e.g., a main body 10) worn on the upper body of a user and part members (e.g., a collar 20, sleeves 30, and a hem 25) in a Japanese kimono, The device has an engaging member (e.g., hook and loop fastener 40, 50, 60) having an engaging portion (e.g., loop portion 40b, 50b, 60b) and an engaged portion (e.g., hook portion 40a, 50a, 60a) that can be engaged with and disengaged from the engaging portion, One of the main body and the part members has a first connecting portion (e.g., first connecting portion 11, 13, 15) and a second connecting portion (e.g., second connecting portion 12, 14, 16) branched from the first connecting portion, The other part of the main body and the part member can be disposed between the first connecting portion and the second connecting portion, the engaging portion is disposed on a surface of the first connecting portion facing the other part and a surface of the second connecting portion facing the other part, A connecting structure in which the engaged portion is arranged at a portion on the front and back surfaces of the other part, where the engaged portion can engage with the engaging portion.

[0008] According to (1), the part member is connected to the main body by an engaging member having an engaging portion and an engaged portion that can be engaged and disengaged with the engaging portion, so that it can be freely attached and detached. Here, one of the main body and the part member is branched into two parts, a first connecting portion and a second connecting portion, and the engaging portion is disposed at the first connecting portion and the second connecting portion. Also, an engaged portion is disposed at a part of the other of the main body and the part member disposed between the first connecting portion and the second connecting portion. Then, by engaging the engaging portion and the engaged portion, the other part is supported from both sides. This makes the connection between the main body and the part member strong and difficult to come off. Also, since the part member is replaceable with respect to the main body, it is possible to easily change the design of the Japanese clothing, and it is possible to improve the degree of freedom in the design of the Japanese clothing. Moreover, even if the Japanese clothing is turned inside out, the connection position of the part member with respect to the main body does not change. Therefore, in a reversible type Japanese clothing, the discomfort caused by the change in the connection position when the front and back are turned over can be reduced. In this way, it is possible to provide a connecting structure for parts of a kimono that allows easy replacement of the parts that make up the kimono and does not change the state of the connecting parts after replacement.

[0009] (2) In (1), the part member is a connecting structure that is at least one of a sleeve, a collar, and a hem.

[0010] According to (2), it becomes easy to replace the sleeves, collar and hem, and it becomes possible to easily change the design of the length, pattern, etc. of the sleeves, collar and hem.

[0011] (3) In (1) and (2), the engaging member has a connecting structure consisting of a hook and loop fastener having hook portions and loop portions that can be connected and disconnected freely with each other.

[0012] According to (3), parts can be easily attached and detached from the main body, and parts can be easily replaced or their design changed. Effect of the Invention

[0013] According to the present invention, it is possible to provide a connecting structure for parts of a kimono that allows the parts that make up the kimono to be easily replaced and does not change the state of the connecting parts after replacement. [Brief description of the drawings]

[0015] Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings.

[0016] Fig. 1 is a front view showing the appearance of a Japanese kimono according to an embodiment of the present invention, and Fig. 2 is a front view showing each part of the Japanese kimono according to an embodiment of the present invention.

[0017] [Composition of Happi 1] The Japanese clothing according to one embodiment of the present invention will be described using a happi coat 1 as an example. The happi coat 1 has a main body 10 made of cloth, called the body part, which covers the upper half of the body, a belt-like collar 20 that is placed so as to be hung around the neck, tubular sleeves 30 made of the same cloth as the main body 10 and through which both arms are passed, and a rectangular hem 25 made of the same cloth as the main body 10 and placed at the bottom of the main body 10. Note that an obi may be used when wearing the happi coat 1. The collar 20, hem 25, and sleeves 30 are examples of parts of the present invention.

[0018] The collar 20, sleeves 30 and hem 25 are detachable from the main body 10. As shown in Fig. 2, in addition to the normal sleeves 30, short sleeves and sleeves with different designs are available, so that the sleeves 30 to be used can be selected as needed. Although not shown, the collar 20 and hem 25 may also be prepared in the same way as the sleeves 30, but in addition to the normal sleeves, short sleeves and sleeves with different designs may also be prepared.

[0019] The main body 10 and the sleeves 30 are connected by a hook-and-loop fastener 40. The main body 10 and the collar 20 are connected by a hook-and-loop fastener 50. The main body 10 and the hem 25 are connected by a hook-and-loop fastener 60. The hook-and-loop fasteners 40, 50, and 60 are examples of fastening members in the present invention.

[0020] [30 sleeve joint structure] Fig. 3 is a perspective view showing a connection portion of the main body 10 with the sleeve 30. Fig. 4 is a cross-sectional view showing a cross section taken along line AA in Fig. 1.

[0021] 3, the attachment portion of the sleeve 30 on the main body 10 has a branched structure branched into two parts, a first connecting part 11 and a second connecting part 12. The second connecting part 12 is a belt-shaped member formed into a ring, and is configured by placing it inside the first connecting part 11 and sewing the rear end part to the main body 10.

[0022] The hook and loop fastener 40 includes a hook portion 40a in which fine hook-shaped fibers are arranged on the sheet surface, and a loop portion 40b in which fine ring-shaped fibers are arranged on the sheet surface.

[0023] 3, a plurality of hook portions 40a are sewn in a ring shape onto the inner surface of the first connecting portion 11. In addition, a plurality of hook portions 40a are sewn onto the surface of the second connecting portion 12 facing the inner surface of the first connecting portion 11.

[0024] In addition, a plurality of loop portions 40b are sewn in a ring shape on the front and back sides of the end of the sleeve 30 on the side of the main body 10. Here, the plurality of loop portions 40b on the front side are arranged at positions where they can be overlapped with the plurality of hook portions 40a of the first connecting portion 11. Similarly, the plurality of loop portions 40b on the back side are arranged at positions where they can be overlapped with the plurality of hook portions 40a of the second connecting portion 12. Note that, although six hook portions 40a and six loop portions 40b are arranged according to FIG. 3, one each of the long, belt-like hook portions 40a and loop portions 40b may be arranged in a ring shape. The number and length of the hook portions 40a and loop portions 40b can be appropriately set according to the size of the sleeve 30.

[0025] Then, as shown in FIG. 4(a), the end of the sleeve 30 to which the loop portion 40b is sewn is inserted between the first connecting portion 11 and the second connecting portion 12 of the main body 10, and as shown in FIG. 4(b), the hook portion 40a and the loop portion 40b are overlapped and joined, thereby connecting the sleeve 30 to the main body 10.

[0026] [20-piece collar connection structure] Fig. 5 is a schematic cross-sectional view taken along line BB in Fig. 1. The connection structure of collar 20 is similar to that of sleeve 30, with the collar end of main body 10 having a branched structure branched into first connecting part 13 and second connecting part 14.

[0027] The hook and loop fastener 50 is similar to the hook and loop fastener 40, and has a hook portion 50a in which fine hook-shaped fibers are arranged on the sheet surface, and a loop portion 50b in which fine ring-shaped fibers are arranged on the sheet surface.

[0028] A plurality of hook portions 50a are sewn in line in the longitudinal direction to the inner surface of the first connecting portion 13. In addition, a plurality of hook portions 50a are sewn to the surface of the second connecting portion 14 facing the inner surface of the first connecting portion 13.

[0029] A plurality of loops 50b are arranged in a line along the longitudinal direction on the front and back surfaces of one of the long sides of the collar 20.

[0030] Then, the long side portion of collar 20 on which loop portions 50b are arranged is inserted between first connecting portion 13 and second connecting portion 14 of main body 10, and hook portion 50a and loop portion 50b are overlapped and joined, thereby connecting collar 20 to main body 10. In this way, collar 20 is attached to main body 10. It is also possible to remove collar 20 and replace it with a collar 20 of a different design.

[0031] [25mm hem joint structure] Fig. 6 is a cross-sectional view showing a schematic cross section taken along line CC in Fig. 1. The connection structure of hem 25 is similar to that of sleeve 30, and the lower end of main body 10 has a branched structure branched into first connecting portion 15 and second connecting portion 16.

[0032] The hook and loop fastener 60 is similar to the hook and loop fastener 40, and has a hook portion 60a in which fine hook-shaped fibers are arranged on the sheet surface, and a loop portion 60b in which fine ring-shaped fibers are arranged on the sheet surface.

[0033] A plurality of hook portions 60a are sewn in line in the longitudinal direction to the inner surface of the first connecting portion 15. In addition, a plurality of hook portions 60a are sewn to the surface of the second connecting portion 16 facing the inner surface of the first connecting portion 15.

[0034] A plurality of loop portions 60b are arranged in a line along the longitudinal direction on the front and back surfaces of one long side of the sleeve 30.

[0035] Then, the long side portion of hem 25 on which loop portions 60b are arranged is inserted between first connecting portion 15 and second connecting portion 16 of main body 10, and hook portion 60a and loop portion 60b are overlapped, thereby connecting hem 25 to main body 10. In this way, hem 25 is attached to main body 10. It is also possible to remove hem 25 and replace it with a hem 25 of a different design or length. There are also cases where hem 25 is not attached.

[0036] [Usage of this embodiment] FIG. 7 is a diagram showing a state where a happi coat 1, which is made by attaching a collar 20, a hem 25, and normal sleeves 30 to a main body 10, is worn on a body. FIG. 8 is a diagram showing a state where a happi coat 1, which is made by attaching a collar 20 and short sleeves 30 to a main body 10, is worn on a body. The happi coat 1 shown in FIG. 8, which is different from the happi coat 1 shown in FIG. 7, has the sleeves 30 shortened by replacing the normal sleeves 30 with short sleeves 30, and the hem is shortened by removing the hem 25. In this way, the design of the happi coat 1 can be easily changed. Also, when the main body 10 is a reversible type, the visible state of the joint parts between the main body 10 and the collar 20 and the normal sleeves 30 does not change when the main body 10 is worn inside out. Therefore, it is possible to change the design of the reversible type happi coat 1 without considering the joint parts between the main body 10 and the collar 20 and the normal sleeves 30.

[0037] [Effects] According to the embodiment of the present invention configured as described above, the collar 20, sleeves 30, and hem 25 can be freely attached and detached to the main body 10. Here, the connection part of the main body 10 with the collar 20, sleeves 30, or hem 25 branches into two, and a hook part of a hook-and-loop fastener is arranged at this branched part. Also, a loop part of a hook-and-loop fastener is arranged at the end of the collar 20, sleeves 30, and hem 25. Then, the hook part and the loop part are joined between the branched parts, sandwiching the end of the collar 20, sleeves 30, and hem 25. This makes the connection between the main body 10 and the collar 20, sleeves 30, and hem 25 strong and difficult to come off easily.

[0038] In addition, because the collar 20, sleeves 30, and hem 25 are interchangeable with respect to the main body 10, it is possible to easily change the length of the sleeves 30 and hem 25 and the design of the collar 20, sleeves 30, and hem 25, improving the degree of freedom in the design of the happi coat 1. Furthermore, even if the happi coat 1 is turned inside out, the connection positions of the collar 20, sleeves 30, and hem 25 with respect to the main body 10 do not change. Therefore, in a reversible happi coat 1, it is possible to reduce the sense of incongruity that would be caused by the change in the connection positions when the coat is turned inside out.

[0039] [Other embodiments] Although the embodiment of the present invention has been described above, the embodiment of the present invention is not limited to the above embodiment. According to the above embodiment, the connecting portion of the collar 20, the sleeves 30, and the hem 25 on the main body 10 side is branched, but it is also possible to branch the collar 20, the sleeves 30, and the hem 25 side, sew one of the hook and loop portions of the hook and loop fastener to a pair of opposing surfaces of the branched portion, and sew the other of the hook and loop portion of the hook and loop fastener to the front and back surfaces of the connecting portion of the collar 20, the sleeves 30, and the hem 25 on the main body 10. For example, as shown in Fig. 9, the loop portion 50b of the hook and loop fastener is attached to the front and back surfaces of the connecting portion of the collar 20 on the main body 10, and the hook portion 50a is attached to both long side portions extending in the longitudinal direction of the belt-shaped member constituting the collar 20. The widthwise center of collar 20 may then be folded, and hook portions 50a, 50a and loop portions 50b, 50b may be overlapped and joined together so that main body 10 is sandwiched between both sides of collar 20.

[0040] In addition, although a happi coat has been described as an example of an embodiment of the present invention, the present invention can also be applied to a yukata, or any kimono that can be worn loosely.

[0041] Furthermore, according to the embodiment of the present invention, the branching portion is formed by sewing the belt-shaped second connecting portions 12, 14, 16 to the first connecting portions 11, 13, 15, but it goes without saying that the method of forming the branching portion is not limited to this and other methods may be used.

[0042] In addition, in the above-described embodiment, a hook-and-loop fastener is used as the fastening member, but other fasteners such as hooks and buttons may be used. Specifically, a convex portion constituting a hook may be attached instead of the hook portions 40a and 50a, and a concave portion constituting a hook may be attached instead of the loop portions 40b and 50b. Also, a buttonhole may be formed in place of the hook portions 40a and 50a at the branching portion of the main body 10, and a button may be attached to the collar 20 or sleeves 30 instead of the hook portions 40a and 50a.

[0043] It should be noted that within the scope of the concept of the present invention, a person skilled in the art may come up with various modifications and alterations. Therefore, it is understood that such modifications and alterations fall within the scope of the present invention. For example, those in which a person skilled in the art appropriately adds, deletes, or modifies the design of the above-mentioned embodiment, or adds, omits, or modifies the conditions of a process, are also included in the scope of the present invention as long as they include the gist of the present invention.
