Abstract
Description
[Technical Field]
[0001] The present invention relates to protective clothing suitable for wearing during welding operations, for example. [Background technology]
[0002] In welding work, protective clothing is used to protect the worker's body from flying debris such as spatter, etc. Patent Document 1 discloses an apron-style protective suit for protecting against molten metal. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]
[0003] [Patent Document 1] Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2004-156177 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]
[0004] Depending on the configuration of the protective clothing, it may be heavy, difficult to put on and take off, or the mobility and comfort may be impaired.
[0005] The present invention has been made in consideration of these points, and aims to provide protective clothing that is excellent in mobility and comfort. [Means for solving the problem]
[0006] The protective clothing of the present invention is characterized by comprising a bolero-type garment body and an apron-type garment body having a chest piece that is worn while wearing the bolero-type garment body. [Effects of the Invention]
[0007] According to the present invention, protective clothing with excellent mobility and comfort can be provided. [Brief explanation of the drawings]
[0008] [Figure 1]1 is a diagram showing a bolero-type garment body constituting the protective clothing according to an embodiment. FIG. [Figure 2] 1 is a diagram showing an apron-type clothing body constituting the protective clothing according to an embodiment. FIG. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
[0009] Hereinafter, preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings. Protective clothing according to an embodiment will be described with reference to Figures 1 and 2. The protective clothing comprises a bolero-type clothing body 1 and an apron-type clothing body 2 having a chest piece 6b. Figure 1 shows the bolero-type clothing body 1, with (a) being a front view and (b) being a back view. Figure 2 shows the apron-type clothing body 2, with (a) being a front view and (b) being a back view. In this application, the front and back (front and back), left and right, and up and down directions refer to directions as seen from the perspective of a wearer wearing the protective clothing. A wearer first puts on the bolero-type garment body 1, and then puts on the apron-type garment body 2. The protective clothing according to this embodiment is protective clothing used during welding work, and the bolero-type garment body 1 and the apron-type garment body 2 are made of a flame-retardant material.
[0010] As shown in Figure 1, the bolero-style garment body 1 comprises a body part 3 having a length that covers the chest and corresponding back, a stand-up collar part 4 attached to the body part 3, and left and right long sleeve parts 5L, 5R sewn to the body part 3.
[0011] As shown in FIG. 2, the apron-type garment body 2 includes an apron body 6, a neck string 7, and left and right waist strings 8L and 8R.
[0012] The bolero-type garment body 1 and the apron-type garment body 2 will be described in detail below. As shown in Figure 1, the body part 3 of the bolero-style garment body 1 has a front-opening structure using fasteners, and is provided with a cover part 9 (not shown) that covers the fasteners to protect them from exposure to spatter. The cover part 9 is fastened with dot buttons, cotton zippers, buttons, etc. (not shown) that are hidden so as not to be exposed to the surface.
[0013] Furthermore, by making the collar portion 4 a stand-up collar, it becomes possible to protect the neck of the wearer.
[0014] The cuffs of the long sleeves 5L, 5R are tightly fitted to make it easy to put on gloves, and have a gusseted cuff structure to make them easier to put on and take off. The long sleeves 5L, 5R may be raglan sleeves as shown in Figure 1, or set-in sleeves.
[0015] As shown in Figure 1(b), a fabric part 10 made of a flame-retardant material is removably attached to the lower back of the body part 3 so as to hang down from the lower part of the back of the body part 3. The fabric part 10 is a separate part that complements the areas that cannot be covered by the apron-type garment main body 2 (mainly around the waist of the wearer), and is removably attached to the lower part of the back of the body part 3 with fixing members 11 such as dot buttons, cotton zippers, buttons, etc. that are hidden so as not to be exposed on the surface.
[0016] Additionally, a tab 12 is provided on the back of the body 3 at the center of the lower end of the collar 4. The tab 12 secures the neck string 7 of the apron-type garment body 2 and prevents it from slipping off during work. The tab 12 is secured by a fastening member 13 such as a dot button, hook-and-loop fastener, or button that is hidden so as not to be exposed on the surface.
[0017] As shown in Figure 2, the apron-type garment body 2 has an apron body 6 with a wide lower portion 6a and a narrow chest portion 6b above the wide portion 6a. A drawstring 14 extending laterally is provided above the wide portion 6a.
[0018] A neck cord 7 is attached to the top end of the apron body 6 (top end of the chest piece 6b) so as to form a loop. The neck cord 7 is made up of left and right belts 7L, 7R, which are detachably fastened in the center of the back with fastening members 15 such as dot buttons, cotton fasteners, or buttons that are hidden so as not to be exposed on the surface. Furthermore, the fastening position of the fastening members 15 may be changed so that the loop length of the neck cord 7 can be adjusted. Changing the loop length of the neck cord 7 makes it possible to adjust the vertical position of the apron body 6.
[0019] Left and right belt-like waist cords 8L, 8R are attached to the left and right edges of the wide portion 6a of the apron body 6. The waist cords 8L, 8R are detachably fastened in the center of the back with fastening members 16 such as buckles, dot buttons, cotton fasteners, buttons, etc. that are hidden so that they are not exposed to the outside. Furthermore, the fastening positions of the fastening members 16 may be changed so that the loop lengths of the waist cords 8L, 8R can be adjusted.
[0020] Additionally, a part 18 through which a spindle cord 17 extending around the waist is sewn to the inside of the apron body 6 as a size adjustment mechanism for the waist, etc., and a fastener 19 is provided on the spindle cord 17, making it possible to adjust the size of the waist from the inside. When the apron body 6 is tightened by adjusting the spindle cord 17, wrinkles caused by unevenness on the surface of the apron body 6 are hidden from the outside by the flap 14, reducing the impact of spatter accumulation on the uneven parts.
[0021] As described above, the combination of the bolero-type garment body 1 and the apron-type garment body 2 with a bib section can be worn as an alternative to conventional heavy jackets, making it easy to put on and take off and effective for protecting against the heat. The bolero-type garment body 1 reliably protects the wearer's neck, shoulders, and arms, while the apron-type garment body 2 provides broad coverage around the lower abdomen and waist, ensuring its functionality as protective clothing. In this way, protective clothing with excellent mobility and comfort can be provided.
[0022] Although the present invention has been described above with reference to the embodiments, the above embodiments are merely examples of specific embodiments for carrying out the present invention, and the technical scope of the present invention should not be construed as being limited by these embodiments. In other words, the present invention can be carried out in various forms without departing from its technical idea or main features. In this embodiment, a structure for fixing the neck cord 7 with a tab 12 has been described as a preventive structure for preventing misalignment between the bolero-type clothing body 1 and the apron-type clothing body 2, but this is not limited to this, and other structures may be provided instead of or in addition to this.
